Since school is out for the winter break, you can find garage covered parking or outside parking. Both parking options require a short walk to the performing arts center. When we arrived we were able to take our annual picture inside with the six foot tall nutcrackers, then headed to our seats. I'm pretty sure every seat here offers you a decent view of the stage. This year we sat one row away from the stage. I will say for me and this was our own doing, that was a bit too close and my neck was starting to bother me. The location is beautiful, the seats are comfortable, and the acoustics are great.

Was here to take in the Newsboys show. The Newsboys put on…read morea great show, I enjoyed how they engaged with their fans. I purchased the VIP tickets with the preferred parking and inner circle club. Upon arrival, it was brought to my attention that somehow, I was not on the list. I opted not to pursue it. I ventured into the Inner Circle Clubhouse, the spread look good from a distance. Upon closer examination, it appears the teriyaki beef was missing the teriyaki sauce, further more it was so overcooked that the meat sucked the moisture out of my mouth. Similarly the pulled pork sliders were also overcooked. The vegetables and fruit were good as well as the deserts. Moving forward, I will opt out of the inner circle club, didn't see worth the trouble.

Lazzara Performance Hall seats 1300 for shows, has plenty of parking either in the parking garage…read moreadjacent to the hall or the lot across the entrance road. I had the opportunity to see The Nutcracker Ballet here and will now keep a look out for future performances! The seats are spacious, the theater feels more intimate than others in the area. They do have a small concession stand, however food and most beverages must be consumed outside the actual theater. Only bottled water is allowed inside the theater. The Florida Ballet performed the Nutcracker with guest ballerinas from the Boston Ballet- the show was lovely, spectacular and elegant scenes with so many dancers. Even the youngest of the show were amazing and very cute. Compared to other venues in the Jacksonville area- this was one of the better theaters I have gone to a show at. I look forward to returning for more!

We came here to see a show and let me tell you, I don't think there's a bad seat in this theater…read more It's more intimate than other theaters I've been too, which I love. The space is perfect to take in a show, as you have a great seat whether you're sitting right up front or in the balcony. The staff is wonderful, they were kind, and showed us to our seats. Parking is also a plus at this theater, as you don't have to pay for parking and the parking garage is pretty close to the theater, which is great. All in all, I'd return to Lazzara to see another show. Pros: -Clean facility -Great seats wherever you sit -Nice bathrooms -Intimate -Helpful staff Cons: -None that I can recall Tips: Arrive early to get a good parking spot.

Yelp challenge 2015 44/365…read more I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to see this Marvel Universe live action show at the Honda Center with my personal superhereo of my own with 2nd row seats. We love superheroes and we used to dress up at movie premieres years ago. So, this was a dream come true. Its been a rough few weeks and tonight we were able to be in the moment and enjoy ourselves. We paid $16.00 to park, picked up our willcall tickets, grabbed a few snacks, a hot dog, chivken tenders w/ fries and a water about $23 and found our ground level seats with a VIP view. The house was definitely full of kids. Which doesn't bother me since Im around kids all day. The show had 20 plus Marvel characters in a battlefield against each other. Those actors were bad to tha bone and definitely in shape to do all the tumbling, riding, flying, fighting that they were doing. One guy was even lit on fire. It was amazing. Although this wasn't really a Yelp event itself, its still my all time favorite Yelp sponsered night!!! Thanks Ryan and Thanks to the big daddy Jeremy!!! Your generosity is much appreciated!!!!

2nd row seats?! Sweet! Yelp sure knows how to make us feel like VIPs and I can't be more grateful…read more Parking was a breeze priced at $16 and our tickets were waiting for us at the Will Call window with a very quick line. With ushers escorting us to our seats, it was smooth sailing for us from beginning to end of the 2-hour show. A 30-minute intermission was a good break. Lots of vendors selling Marvel products are to be expected and overpriced, at that. So just be wary. It was a joy watching all the kids dressed up as their favorite Super Hero. This would be the best time to bust out those costumes, parents! I had teens in tow as they are more into these things than I am. Can't be happier to have seen them enjoy all the effects and stunts featured all throughout the evening. Spidey and Thor were my two favorite characters that night as those two had a cute humor going and were closest to the actual super heroes in terms of how they look, the acting, and their voices. The bike stunts were sometimes repetitive but it was a nice addition to the show, nonetheless. The Hulk had quite an entrance and you can tell the audience loved it. All the Marvel super heroes united last night to fight Loki and the villains to get back the pieces of the cosmic cube as this can be very dangerous in the wrong hands. Taken as captives were Storm and Cyclops, but they were saved in the end, of course. Yay to mission accomplished! I can't say it enough, thank you, Yelp and a loud shout out to Ryan for being the best CM out there! It was great seeing you last night, Jennifer. Catch you next time, Vince!

Wanted to surprise my wife with a great haunted house and it was anything but. It was Nov 1. Maybe half the staff didn't come to work that day? There were extremely long segments where it would have made sense to have additional characters. If it was free or even a local fundraiser with volunteers it would be an ok house. Don't waste your money on this one.
