Jacksonville Jaguars

Jaguar fans look forward to fall, when the NFL season heats up.

If you love football, then you can’t miss a Jaguars home game at EverBank Stadium - home to one of the world's largest video scoreboards. When the Jaguars take the field, the whole city celebrates.

Fan Experience

EverBank Stadium

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!

Tailgating and Pre Kick-Off Fun

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.

Tailgating 101

What’s a game day without a tailgate? We certainly don’t want to find out. Tailgating is permitted in the parking lots that surround the stadium, however, we recommend the one that has indoor bathrooms, an outdoor bar, and live music. What more could you ask for? Just be sure to check out the EverBank Stadium tailgating policy to be sure you’re following procedure and staying safe when rocking out.

Parking Tips

Speaking of parking lots, we know tips for parking are always helpful for large events. Here are some of our best tips for parking on game day:

  • Bring cash—many lots only accept cash to park
  • Know that the lots open 4 hours prior to kickoff (it’s always better to arrive early to ensure a spot)
  • Don’t get caught without a valid parking pass or you will be towed
  • Carpool with other fans to save on time, money, and space
  • Take advantage of the Pedicabs or electric scooters if you are parked further away
  • Consider parking in lot X across from Intuition (10 min walk)

Also, did you know you could take your boat to the EverBank Stadium? Talk about arriving in style! Just visit this website for more information about boat docking for the Jaguar's home games.
