JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 Fans will get a chance to see one small piece of the Stadium of the Future complete in time for the Jaguars next home game. <\/p>\n
Grand Staircase One, the first piece of the Jaguars\u2019 new stadium, will be open for Jacksonville\u2019s \u201cMonday Night Football\u201d game against the Chiefs on next week. <\/p>\n
The team will cut the ribbon on the staircase on Friday morning. It\u2019s the first of four Grand Staircases that will be in the new stadium. It\u2019s located inside Gate 1 at the southwest corner of the stadium. The ribbon-cutting presentation is closed to the public. <\/p>\n
Jacksonville\u2019s rebuilt and refurbished venue, called the Stadium of the Future, was approved by the City Council in June 2024<\/a> and unanimously approved by NFL owners last October<\/a>. Construction began on the massive project earlier this year. The initial price tag on the project is $1.4 billion, with $775 million of that put up by the city. <\/p>\n The Jaguars are playing as usual in EverBank Stadium this season but will play 2026 here in a reduced capacity. The team will relocate temporarily in 2027 as more significant stadium changes push the team out of town. The location hasn\u2019t been announced but is expected to Orlando or Gainesville, with the latter a longshot. <\/p>\n Copyright 2025 by WJXT News4JAX – All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 Fans will get a chance to see one small piece of the Stadium of the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":411948,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2060],"tags":[7,212,125,2401,213,11589,6,14035,52521],"class_list":{"0":"post-411947","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jacksonville-jaguars","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-jacksonville","10":"tag-jacksonville-jaguars","11":"tag-jacksonvillejaguars","12":"tag-jaguars","13":"tag-news4jags","14":"tag-nfl","15":"tag-sports4jax","16":"tag-stadium-of-the-future"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115299881089919107","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/411947","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=411947"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/411947\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/411948"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=411947"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=411947"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=411947"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
