Orlando, FL – NFL owners have approved a plan for the Jacksonville Jaguars to play their home games in Orlando during the 2027 season while construction work takes place at their home stadium in Jacksonville.
The decision was finalized during the league’s annual meetings and received unanimous support from team owners.
The temporary relocation is tied to a major renovation project at EverBank Stadium, which will undergo extensive upgrades as part of a long term redevelopment plan.
The construction is expected to make the stadium unavailable for the 2027 season, requiring the team to find an alternative location.
Camping World Stadium in Orlando has been selected as the temporary home venue.
The stadium has hosted a range of major sporting events and is expected to accommodate all Jaguars home games during the relocation period.
Officials said the agreement includes a one year arrangement with Florida Citrus Sports to manage the use of the facility.
Team representatives considered several potential locations before choosing Orlando, including other cities within Florida.
The selection was based on factors such as stadium capacity, infrastructure, and accessibility for fans.
The Jaguars are expected to return to Jacksonville once renovations are completed, with the upgraded stadium projected to reopen ahead of the 2028 NFL season.
Officials say the move is part of a broader effort to modernize the team’s home facility while maintaining operations during construction.
