Sclerochloa dura is a species of grass known by the common names common hardgrass and fairground grass.

It is a sturdy annual grass forming low, flat clumps of short stems, some prostrate and some upright. The flat, overlapping leaf blades are a few centimeters long. The inflorescence is a crowded, one-sided series of flattened spikelets.
