The Penn Relays (also Penn Relays Carnival) is one of the largest track and field meets in the United States, hosted annually since April 21,1895 by the University of Pennsylvania at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It regularly attracts over 15,000 participants from high schools, colleges, and track clubs throughout North America and abroad, competing in over 300 events over five days. Historically, the event has been credited with popularizing the running of relay races.
