\u00a0\u00a0 JACKSONVILLE \u2014 The Jaguars will be home in Orlando \u2013 officially and temporarily.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 NFL owners on Tuesday unanimously approved terms of a temporary, one-year stadium lease between the Jaguars and Florida Citrus Sports for the Jaguars to play home games in Camping World Stadium in Orlando during the 2027 NFL season.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 “The Jaguars couldn’t ask for a better scenario than Orlando and Camping World Stadium as our temporary home in 2027,\u201d said Jaguars Owner Shad Khan. \u201cThis couldn’t have happened without the endorsement of the league and team owners who approved our plan two years ago for a renovated Stadium of the Future in Downtown Jacksonville, and we’re especially appreciative of the support of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the process. We’re also grateful to the team at Florida Citrus Sports that made this solution a reality that will benefit all, including Jaguars fans just a few hours away in Jacksonville. This is a win that everyone can celebrate.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 The league’s 32 owners approved Orlando as the Jaguars’ temporary home during the NFL’s 2026 Annual Meeting in Phoenix, Arizona. Camping World Stadium will be designated as the Jaguars’ home stadium in 2027, with the team unable to play at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville because of ongoing renovations.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 “Following the comprehensive evaluation of our 2027 season playing options, we are pleased that the NFL and NFL owners unanimously agree that Orlando is the location that best meets the needs of the Jaguars, our 2027 opponents, and the National Football League,\u201d said Jaguars President Mark Lamping. \u201cThis temporary relocation is a necessary and important step to facilitate the 2028 completion of Jacksonville’s Stadium of the Future. We are deeply grateful to our fanbase for their continued support, patience, and enthusiasm during this interim period. We are also incredibly thankful for the support of Florida Citrus Sports, the City of Orlando, Orange County and other stakeholders for making this 2027 home for the Jaguars possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00a0 The renovated Stadium of the Future is expected to be complete and ready to be the Jaguars’ permanent home field in time for the 2028 regular season. The Jaguars will play home games at EverBank Stadium in 2026 at limited capacity.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 “We couldn’t be more excited for the opportunity to welcome the Jacksonville Jaguars and their fans to Orlando for the 2027 season,\u201d said Florida Citrus Sports CEO Steve Hogan. \u201cHosting NFL regular-season football is a major milestone for our city, and we’re grateful to the Jaguars and NFL ownership for their belief in our community. Orange County and the City of Orlando have invested significant resources in our stadium campus, and the 2027 season will provide a tremendous opportunity to deliver a first-class fan experience and further elevate Orlando’s standing as a host for major sporting events.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u00a0\u00a0 JACKSONVILLE \u2014 The Jaguars will be home in Orlando \u2013 officially and temporarily. \u00a0\u00a0 NFL owners on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":861478,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2060],"tags":[7,212,125,2401,213,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-861477","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-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116370852367940441","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861477","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=861477"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861477\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/861478"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=861477"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=861477"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=861477"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
