| Lot | Price | Distance | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Official Stadium Lots | $40 | 0.1-0.3 miles | Lots surrounding EverBank Stadium in downtown Jacksonville. Advance purchase recommended. |
| Downtown Jacksonville Lots | $15 | 0.3-0.5 miles | Surface lots and garages in downtown Jacksonville. Walk across the Hart Bridge or along the river to the stadium. |

### Getting here without a car

| Option | Cost | Distance | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Jacksonville Skyway (Free) | $0 | 0.3 miles from station | Jacksonville Skyway (free elevated monorail) connects downtown. Limited hours. Walk from downtown hotels is also easy. |

### Parking tips

- Pre-purchase official lot passes through the Jaguars app or Ticketmaster for Lot J and south lots.
- Downtown garages offer the best value at $20. Walk across the Main Street Bridge for a scenic approach.
- The water taxi is the most unique way to arrive. Park downtown and take a boat across the St. Johns River.
- East lot roads along Gator Bowl Blvd get congested post-game. Consider walking downtown to avoid the traffic.
- Handicap parking is available in all official lots with a valid placard.
- If staying downtown, walk to the stadium. It's 20-30 minutes and crosses the scenic riverwalk.


## Seating

EverBank Stadium has three levels and one buying rule that is worth more than any of them: on both the Lower Level (sections 101-143) and the Club Level (201-243), the LOWER the section number, the closer you are to the 50-yard line. That single fact lets you read a listing without a map. The stadium's signature is at the north end — a two-level deck with cabana seating, bars, video screens and two spa-style wading pools, part of it private and part open to anyone in the seating bowl.

| Section | Price range | View | Pros | Cons |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| North End Zone Pools/Cabanas | $170 - $500 | The two-level north end deck, with cabana seating, bars and two spa-style wading pools overlooking the field. | Two large wading pools and other water features — nothing else in the NFL is quite this; Cabana-style seating with bars and video screens rather than rows; Part of the deck is open to ALL fans in the seating bowl, not only cabana buyers | North end zone, so the far end of the field is distant; The private cabana sections are a group product |
| Gallagher Clubs | $250 - $650+ | Premium sideline seating between the 25-yard lines, with climate-controlled lounges behind. | Between the 25-yard lines — the position is defined, not implied; Cushioned seats, climate-controlled lounges and private restrooms; Air conditioning matters more in Jacksonville than almost anywhere else in the league | The lounges are much of what the price buys |
| 200-Level Club | $85 - $250 | The Club Level, sections 201-243, with wider seats and more legroom. | Wider seats and more legroom than the Lower Level; Upscale restaurants and bars on the level; Section 201 is nearest the 50-yard line and 243 the furthest — the numbering tells you where you are | A deck removed from the field; Not every club-level seat carries Gallagher Club access |
| Lower Sideline (100-Level) | $120 - $300 | The Lower Level, sections 101-143, closest to the field. | The most immersive ordinary seats in the stadium; The same numbering rule applies: 101 is nearest the 50, 143 the furthest | Open-air in Florida heat with no lounge to retreat to |
| End Zone (100-Level) | $40 - $120 | The Lower Level behind the end zones, looking the length of the field. | Lower-level proximity at well under sideline money; The best angle on a goal-line play | End-on, so route depth is hard to judge; Half the game happens 100 yards away |
| Upper Level (400-Level) | $20 - $65 | The top level, a bird's-eye view over the whole field. | Height enough to see the whole play develop | Steep, and a long way from the field; The most exposed seats to the Jacksonville sun |

## Getting There

EverBank Stadium publishes no route in — it publishes lots. Twelve stadium-controlled ones, a handful of nearby cash lots, and a free game-day shuttle that runs from five of them. If you have a lot, the stadium's guidance starts and ends there; if you do not, its own pages will not help you find the interstate.

**Driving.** The stadium is at 1 EverBank Stadium Drive and publishes no interstate route or exit. It documents twelve stadium-controlled lots — A, C, D, E, J, M, N, P, S, TT, V and Z — plus nearby cash lots including Tailgaters Parking, Old Cypress Parking and the Sports Complex Garage.

**Public transit.** The JTA GameDay Xpress is the public transit option the stadium names. Separately, the Farah & Farah Game Day Shuttle stops at Lot S, Lot X, Lot Z, Met Park and the Old Cypress Lot, running from three hours before kickoff until an hour after the game.

**Rideshare.** Uber and Lyft serve EverBank Stadium with designated pickup/dropoff zones near Lot J. From downtown Jacksonville hotels, expect $8-12. From Jacksonville Airport (JAX), $20-30. Post-game surge pricing is moderate. Walk toward downtown for faster pickup.

### Transit options

| Option | Price | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| JTA Gameday Xpress round trip (from downtown lots, parking included) | $10 | Jacksonville Transportation Authority runs express shuttle buses from park-and-ride locations to EverBank Stadium on game days |
| St. Johns River Taxi round trip / all-day pass | $20 | Scenic water taxi from downtown Jacksonville across the St. Johns River directly to the stadium area, a unique Jaguars experience |
| Rideshare (from Downtown) | $10 | Uber/Lyft from downtown Jacksonville hotels, ~5-10 minutes depending on traffic |
| Walking (from Downtown) | $0 | 20-30 minute walk from downtown Jacksonville across the Main Street Bridge or via the Riverwalk |

## Tailgating

Tailgating at EverBank Stadium is confined to your lined space and the ground directly in front of or behind the vehicle — with one welcome exception, the medians separating the lots from each other and from the roadways, where it is also permitted. Grilling has to be contained to a barbecuing structure and open fires are not allowed at all; everything must be extinguished before you leave the lot. Nothing tailgating-related happens in a parking garage: loitering, open fires and tailgating are all barred there. Lots open four hours before kickoff and close two hours after, and all tailgating in stadium-controlled lots stops for the duration of the game.

### Rules

- Tailgating is limited to the lined parking space and the area directly behind or in front of each vehicle.
- Tailgating is also permitted on the medians that separate the parking lots, and the parking lots from the roadways.
- Grilling must be contained to a barbecuing structure. Open fires are not permitted, and all fires must be extinguished before leaving the parking lot.
- All tables, chairs, coolers, barbecues and similar items must be kept within the parking stall of your party, and blocking the drive lane is prohibited.
- Loitering, open fires, tailgating and any related activity are not permitted in any parking garage.
- Tents or canopies exceeding an 8' x 8' footprint, and vehicles longer than 18' or wider than 8', may not use a lined parking space.
- All tailgating in stadium-controlled parking lots is prohibited throughout the game.
- Parking lots typically open four hours before kickoff and close two hours after the end of the event.


### Best areas

| Area | Description |
| --- | --- |
| The stadium lots | Where tailgating happens, confined to the lined parking space and the area directly behind or in front of the vehicle. Tables, chairs, coolers and barbecues all stay within your party's stall, and the drive lane must not be blocked. |
| The medians | The strips separating the parking lots from each other and from the roadways, where tailgating is also permitted — the extra ground most stadiums keep clear. |
| The parking garages | Off-limits for all of it. Loitering, open fires, tailgating and any related activity are not permitted in any parking garage at the stadium. |

## Food & Drink

EverBank Stadium's food scene reflects Jacksonville's coastal Florida identity. Fresh seafood, fried shrimp, fish tacos, and smoked fish dip, shares the concourse with Southern BBQ and Caribbean-influenced flavors. Bold City Brewery and Intuition Ale Works represent Jacksonville's growing craft beer scene. The stadium's north end zone pools and cabanas come with their own food and drink service, making them a complete party within the game. Outside the stadium, Jacksonville's San Marco and Riverside neighborhoods offer excellent dining within a short drive.

## Game Day Timeline

EverBank Stadium sits on the north bank of the St. Johns River in downtown Jacksonville, making it one of the most scenic NFL stadium settings. The Jaguars game-day experience is defined by a fun, laid-back Florida atmosphere, the north end zone pools and cabanas are unlike anything else in the NFL. The Jaguars' growing fanbase has found its identity with Jaxson de Ville, one of the most entertaining mascots in sports, performing stunts from the stadium roof. Budget-friendly pricing makes this one of the most accessible game-day experiences in professional football.
