SMG-Prime Osborn Convention Center Reviews

Visited here during the model train exhibit and swap meet, great place to visit, loved the big steam engine out front.

Went here for the Jax Auto show. Place was clean! Dunno what else I can say about it lol

Jacksonviles convention center offers a venue for a variety of events. Car shows, boat shows, science fairs and demonstrations all have been at the Prime. Multiple rooms afford presenters a variety of options. The venue has plenty of parking and is easily handicap accessible. For most events there is a security check upon entering,so, check the website for guidelines on what you can bring in and what items are prohibited.

I went to a Vets 4 Vets event with my Tech From Vets Family. This event was super informative for veterans. I met two organizations available to help women veterans. The things their organizations are doing for women veterans like myself is amazing.

It was easy to get to, to park, and it was nice to have carpet to walk on. It saved my feet!

The Jacksonville Home and Patio show is excellent. We will be back.

I've been at this place many times for many wonderful events, this place is always clean and beautiful

Dinosaur exhibit was a great experience for my son.

We were able to park close by, easy to get from the highway. The bathrooms were clean as was the rest of the place. It was our first time there will definitely be back for other events

Christmas Made In The South. Great fun. Tons of vendors and food trucks outside. Great fun. Easy parking.

This is a large venue for different functions. I have attended several school expos here. The building is nice inside with plenty of room to accommodate groups and multiple venues at once. There is also a concession stand that has drinks and snacks. Last time I was there, there was a Bavarian nuts vendor that made the place smell heavenly!

An excellent example of how to repurpose and expand an existing structure. This facility is built upon the old railroad station. Much of the interior hallways have been decorated with equipment and furnishings of the original building. The original portion which served as the station has been renovated and serves as a lobby and museum devoted to it's history.

And for the serious train buff, there is a 4-6-2 Pacific in the parking lot, and a heavyweight coach tucked beside the building, just oposite if the monorail station across the street.

Please dont ask me about the inside of the convention halls as I only paid attention to the railroad items and the architecture.

I had a wonderful time at the Southern Women show with my friends in the Prime F . Osborn ||| Convention Center

Easy to find, lots of space. Clean and nice.

Went here for an expo for the Donna marathon. Only got to experience the lobby and first ballroom, but had no issues.

Nice setup all indoors, places to sit throughout the building.

Big venue. Maybe too big for the various shows they do there. Never cheap though.

Nice place. Holds awesome events. Parking is a hassle.

I look forward to the Southern Women Show every year.

Huge space. Came here for a showcase. Very nice. Always clean.

Fantastic HUGE center for conferences and shows. Has many different rooms with a unique layout so you never feel like you are walking around in a warehouse

Me and my great-niece took a outdoors adventure by the water fountain . She enjoyed but said to me she was scare..a little 2 yrs old girl

I was there today for the first time and it is a beautiful place.

Really good venue. The only challenge is they need to get the WiFi thing working much much better

Nice venue....underutilized....needs more hotels and night life nearby

My visit there was for the annual kids Christmas party and toy giveaway. Very pleasant drama free atmosphere

This place is a garbage can. Jacksonville is a bunch of future and ex felons

Enjoyed the Duval County Public School of Choice Expo today. I had a chance to network and gather information about other schools as well as community information

Such a nice venue but not a lot are being putting into upkeep the place. We have bridal show here twice a year for the last 4 years and the condition of the convention seem to be the same.

What a waste. Huge facility buy its empty and they rent it out without any real incentives. Needs more activities and a new marketing scheme to serve a broader, more diverse audience base.

Recently been here for the Home and Patio show.The parking area needs improvement and there is a fee of $5 for parking when I visited.Very spacious inside the convention center.Wide variety of vendors at the show.Had a nice experience.

Rooms were freezing but the place itself was a pretty cool place to have a convention in.

Beautiful facility but in need of people to direct traffic

The 5 stars is for the dinosaur show my children loved all of the dinosaurs on this play this was probably the biggest dinosaur exhibit I've ever seen. Not to take anything away from the convention center It's almost at the age of town but the good thing is parking was free

Home & Patio show awesome as ever great selection of vendors

It is a convention center, I get it but the concessions are horrible. My kids had chicken fingers that were raw on the inside. Fortunately my kids tear their chicken fingers when they eat them, thus avoiding a likely case of food poisoning.

Parking sucks the place is a maze hope they build a new one soon

Our old train station is great for events come to the show day after Thanksgiving till that Sunday

Getting to here and parking is super easy, great venue

Decent venue. Used to be the main railroad station when my dad was a kid.

Here for work. The complex was large, but parking was easy. Seemed well maintained.

Nice place, i was there for the auto show. The layout is, more like a bunch of conference rooms. But ok i guess.

Always something great going on. You will pay for parking at most events.

Snacks overpriced for Seniors at 2-day Senior Expo - $4.00 for a bottle of water. Really?

Women's convention was great. Was all set up very nicely. Professional people.
