EverBank Stadium is home to the Jaguars and Super Bowl XXXIX. It is one of the largest sports complexes in the NFL and draws more than 80,000 fans on game days. Located near the St. Johns River in the heart of Downtown, the stadium provides easy access to accommodations on both the North and Southbank.
The Stadium of the Future plans to open in August 2028. The new stadium will include wider concourses, scenic lookout decks, a protective canopy, nature park and more. There is lots of excitement around this new stadium and we can't wait for everyone to experience it once it's done!
For locals, tailgating is serious business. Prior to kick-off, Jaguar fans fill nearby parking lots to grill and get pumped for the big game. The North End Zone also features tailgate cabanas, available for pre-game groups or corporate events. Contact the Jacksonville Jaguars office for more information about cabana rentals.
As an alternative to tailgating, grab a bite at a Downtown eatery, a drink on one of Jacksonville's rooftop bars or a craft beer at one of the nearby Jax Ale Trail stops.
