Maine Sports Commission

Maine’s called Vacationland for a reason.  We’ve got pristine mountains and lakes, fields, forests and 3,500 miles of coastline. You can smell the salt sea in the air and see shooting stars above your head at night. Every corner of the state beckons you outside to enjoy its raw beauty, making Maine a haven for sports.

And for the pros, almost pros, not even close to pros and people who just like to cheer, the countless sporting events that take place here every year are a special treat. They’re a chance for everyone to enjoy, if even for a weekend, the special place we get to take in all year.

Plus with 4 seasons, Maine can host 4 times the types of events. Skiing to sailing, running to rafting, we can be the backdrop for it all. So if you’d like to get in on all Maine has to offer (be it hosting an event, planning, participating or just watching), we at the Maine Sports Commission are here to help get YOU here.

Maine offers a unique blend of natural beauty and vibrant communities, making it a standout destination for sports and outdoor enthusiasts. With its stunning coastlines, lush forests, and rugged mountain landscapes, the state provides an unparalleled launchpad for activities ranging from trail running and cycling to skiing and sailing.

When searching for flights to Maine, keep in mind that the Bangor International Airport (BGR) and the Portland International Jetport (PWM) are the two airports with the most routes and flight options.

Our lakes, mountains, beaches, arenas, and fields make Maine the perfect backdrop for sporting events of all shapes and sizes, especially your upcoming one. So let our Maine Sports Commission team help you find just the right spot for your event, competition, or fun company outing.
