GRAB YOUR BIRTHDAY HAT!
We were EIGHT YEARS OLD on March 1, 2026. The Maxwell Regional Agricultural and Convention Center opened to serve Wayne County, regional clients and patrons of all types eight years ago.
Since our grand opening in 2018, The Maxwell Center has been home to 2,000 events and over 500,000+ visitors. The majority of our events are private and not open to the public, like corporate trainings, banquets, weddings and such. Last year we were host to 336 various events for groups as small as 12 and as large as 2,000. With our movable hall walls and classrooms we can accommodate a variety of different sized events.
In addition to our rental spaces, The Max has offices for The Maxwell staff, as well as Wayne County Cooperative Extension, Wayne County Soil & Water Conservation, and USDA Farm Service Agency. Our campus is also home to the Farm Credit Farmers Market (spring through fall) and the Friday afternoon Curb Market, where you can always find something good to eat!
Our new neighbor is Homewood Suites by Hilton and features 110 great suites just across our parking lot.
Because most of our events are private, we do not have a calendar page for the public. Events that are open to the public are promoted on our Facebook Page.
Please feel free to browse our website, especially the Gallery, and if you need to have an event – There’s No Place Like Our Home!
