About

The University Student Center (USC) at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg is the newest full-service conference and event facility located in downtown St. Petersburg. If you’re looking for a Tampa Bay event or one directly in St. Petersburg, then this is your venue. The USC features a 7,500 sq ft state-of-the-art ballroom and 4 meeting rooms in the building available throughout the year.  Additionally, the adjacent residence hall has 196 beds available in the summer months for multi-day conferencing. Unique venues are available on campus, offering both indoor and outdoor spaces for groups of 2-600. Plan a wedding reception on the Harborside Lawn overlooking Bayboro Harbor with USFSP sail boats as the back drop, or dance the night away in our formal ballroom.
