sotf-header-100325

The Future Starts Here

The City of Jacksonville and the Jacksonville Jaguars have partnered to transform EverBank Stadium. Transforming the stadium and enhancing the existing structure is the most sustainable and environmentally friendly way to provide the Jaguars, the Florida-Georgia game, and the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl with a home that will provide a state-of-the-art fan experience. It will also enhance the ability to attract other events, such as soccer games and concerts.

Construction is scheduled to be complete in August 2028. The Jaguars will play at home for the 2026 NFL season, keeping as many games as possible in Jacksonville. Fans will have the ability to see progress when attending games during this NFL season. The transformation of this city-owned asset will benefit Jacksonville and the region. This project belongs to everyone.

Key Features

Using research derived from Jaguars fans, stadium guests and a comprehensive assessment of the facility's structure, our plans call for a reimagined stadium with an environmentally friendly and cost-effective structure that showcases state-of-the-art innovation. This proposal ensures the continuation of the annual traditions of the Florida-Georgia Football Classic and TaxSlayer Gator Bowl while also opening opportunities for future Super Bowls, Final Four tournaments, college football playoffs, marquee concerts and more.
