Jacksonville, Fl — The 2026-2027 NFL season opens in Jacksonville on Sunday when the Jaguars host the Cleveland Browns. It’ll be the final home season in EverBank Stadium as fans have known it for decades. Construction of the stadium of the future is well underway. Next season the Jaguars will play home games in Orlando, and the new stadium will open in 2028.
The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp’s final homestand of 2026 features a six-game series against the Gwinnett Stripers, Triple-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves, that runs through Saturday.
This weekend also features Fin Fest, a free two-day ocean conservation, education and music festival.
