Jacksonville team to temporarily relocate while EverBank Stadium gets major upgrades
ORLANDO, Fla. – On Tuesday afternoon, NFL team owners unanimously approved the plan for the Jacksonville Jaguars to play the 2027 season at Camping World Stadium in Orlando.
The temporary move will allow workers time to make major upgrades to EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville.
Camping World Stadium is undergoing its own upgrades to get ready for the Jaguars.
Construction kicked off in February 2026 and is expected to bring the stadium up to a capacity of 65,000.
The Orlando upgrades come at a cost of $400 million. Work is expected to be completed in the summer of 2027.
It wouldn’t be the first time NFL players descended on the City Beautiful, as the previous Pro Bowl games have been held in Orlando.
