EverBank Field Travel Guide

EverBank Field in Jacksonville, Florida, is one of the top tailgating stadiums in the country. The mild Florida weather means fans can cook out and cool off throughout the football season while other parts of the country are snowed in. EverBank Stadium is home to the Jacksonville Jaguars and can seat almost 70,000. Along with the Jaguars NFL team, EverBank Field hosts college games throughout the year - like the UGA-UF rivalry game - and events and concerts for Jacksonville residents.

Things to Do at EverBank Field
The designers at EverBank Field made sure there were plenty of opportunities for excitement throughout the stadium. Guests at this stadium can grab a quick drink in the Bud Light Party Zone or spend the whole game relaxing in one of the high-end cabanas. In FanDuelVille located in the north end zone, fans can enjoy live music or dance to guest DJs who bring the party and get fans riled up for the game. Kids can play in the Jaguars Cub Club or Junior Jags, which cater to kids up until they turn 12. 

Florida can get hot - especially in the summer - so visitors can also stop by the Sea Best Cool Zones with fans, air conditioning, and mist to escape the sun before returning to watch their team score a touchdown.
