    Located in downtown, quite a happening place. Visited it to see season of light in Omaha downtown. Beautiful lighting on trees in Turner Park. Loved driving around this. Trails to walk, ping pong table at the entrance of the park.

    It's such a nice area. My grandchildren loved all the holiday lights and felt magical. Sometimes, simplicity is nice.

    This park has a lot of scheduled events for families: concerts, night markets, movie nights, Jazz on the Green, restaurants nearby, movie theater nearby, permanent ping pong tables, plenty of parking + parking garage. The only thing missing is a playground for the little ones. Bring a lawn chair and enjoy the green space during an event or even a picnic anytime.

    Turner Park is a public park belonging to the City of Omaha but managed by Midtown Crossing. MTX has a variety of events held here - Movie Monday’s, Jazz on the Green, Bocce Ball, etc. The park is surrounded by restaurants.

    Clean and pretty. This is an incredible park to visit. I can’t imagine how it feels during a concert.

    It is really pretty with the Christmas lights they put up. And a great little walk with your kids.

    Turner Park is a great place to take a walk or do some jogging during the day . And the area has been renovated some what with the help of Mutual of Omaha Insurance Company and other investors . Which this institution has made improvements within this neighborhood in Midtown Omaha , Nebraska 😉. Truly Yours Mr.Cottrell 😉. Have a good day .

    Turner Park is beautiful. The pictures that I took are when they did the lighting ceremony for the Holidays. It is very beautiful at night with all of the trees lit up and the big Christmas tree that they put up as well. Attached are some pictures of Farnam Street as well. The walkway around the park is amazing! Great place to go for a walk, a good date night idea for couples who want to get out and take a nice nightly walk!

    Went to go see that fireworks show at this location last weekend was unsure of where to go but the people that were walking around were very friendly and they were very helpful on telling me where to go because I was unsure of which direction the fireworks were going to be yes there was lots of people there but luck of the draw I was able to find a good parking stall where I could stay in my vehicle and keep warm and watched fireworks because it was very very cold outside I was able to do a video of the firework show and posted online was very very satisfied but the show and will be going there again next year

    It's somewhat of a hidden gem. It's where you can both get outdoors and go in stores within just feet of each other. Whether you're walking the dog or whispering sweet nothings in the ear of the one you love.

  • 4/5 Jon P. 5 years ago on Google
    A nice place for outdoor events, yoga in the park, movies in the park, and a good place to walk good doggos. The view of downtown is nice also.

  • 5/5 Kevin C. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this park. A great green space within Midtown. Clean and well kept.

  • 3/5 jay G. 11 months ago on Google
    Not enough parking for the amount of businesses that are there. Only after I left did I find out there was a parking garage but there is a charge to use it. If I'm going to a business I want there to be ample convient parking or I just to a place that does. I should not have to drive in circles to look for a place to park then walk a distance in the weather to the business

  • 5/5 Robbin W. 11 months ago on Google
    Went for bubble tea. There was a wedding going on in the park. I couldn't see much of the park, but it looked nice from the parts I saw.

  • 5/5 Kassie H. 4 years ago on Google
    I love Turner Park! They have a wide variety of fun events all year long. I love the restaurants around this place too! I especially appreciate how many free activities there are, including a ping pong table outside. I would definitely recommend hanging out around this place!

  • 5/5 Aaron W. 3 years ago on Google
    Very clean and quiet. Great for dog walking and spending outdoor quality time with your children.

  • 5/5 Tyler L. 9 months ago on Google
    Very well maintained park area with live music during certain weekends in the summer. Surrounded by good restaurants and places to stay if you're from out of town.

  • 5/5 Gustavo Q. 7 months ago on Google • 54 reviews
    Great atmosphere! Amazing concerts offered to the public. Most people are friendly but be aware that there's always someone rude and bad behaved kids (parents don't care if they bother other people). If you're ever interested in an event offered in tbis location, I would recommend giving it a try. It's a nice place to relax and spend time with family and friends.

    Turner Park was lovely and the three of us had a good time, and now we are going to Brownell Talbot for more walking.

  • 5/5 Chris H. 1 year ago on Google
    The park offers a lot of sight seeing since it's in Midtown and a good walking trail. If you want to enjoy lunch or a drink outside, Turner Park is a good place to just relax for a little bit.
