âStadium of the Futureâ: Jaguars reveal renovation plans in online presentation (News4JAX)
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. â The cost of turning EverBank Stadium into the Stadium of the Future could be $1.4 billion divided between the city and the Jaguars.
The city has already earmarked $10 million towards the stadium makeover. The funding is coming out of an already approved $20 million capital improvement plan.
The current construction plans have the stadium slated for renovation during the 2026 and 2027 seasons â with the Jags returning home in 2028.
Negotiations between the team and the city of Jacksonville are still underway and may not be decided until this summer.
