Here\u2019s what you need to know before heading to EverBank Stadium.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 kNAFkD cuqaEv article-text\"><b>RELATED: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news4jax.com\/sports\/2025\/09\/05\/new-era-arrives-jaguars-ready-to-roll-as-panthers-head-to-town-for-season-opener\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.news4jax.com\/sports\/2025\/09\/05\/new-era-arrives-jaguars-ready-to-roll-as-panthers-head-to-town-for-season-opener\/\"><b>New era arrives: Jaguars ready to roll as Panthers head to town for season opener<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Umbrellas are often our first defense when the rain starts coming down. Unfortunately, you\u2019re going to have to leave those in the car. Instead, bring your rain jacket or poncho to get through the wet weather.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Throughout the season, the sun inevitably bears down on the bowl of EverBank. The Jaguars\u2019 Chief Operating Officer, Chad Johnson, said they\u2019re offering some relief.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">\u201cNew this year, we\u2019re allowing fans to bring two bottles of water into the stadium as opposed to last year\u2019s policy of one bottle of water,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Those bottles can be refilled at water fountains throughout the stadium. If you don\u2019t have a water bottle, cups are available to fill at guest service booths.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">If you feel yourself getting hot and need to cool down, the Jags said JTA cooling buses will be at Gate 4 with water coolers. The South Endzone and Daily\u2019s Place also provide shaded spaces with seating.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">\u201cOverall, it\u2019s just going to be a great experience. We\u2019re really excited for everything,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">The parking lots open at 9 a.m., and golf carts will be traveling around to pick people up from the outer lots and bring them to the stadium. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">The gates are open by 11 a.m. Kickoff of the Jags season is set for just after 1 p.m. Be safe, be cool, and stay dry. <\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2025 by WJXT News4JAX &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 Football is back in Jacksonville, but as you know, the Sunshine State isn\u2019t always bright&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":207045,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5136],"tags":[5229,70721,3188,723,7310,8017,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-207044","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jacksonville","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-everbank-stadium","10":"tag-fl","11":"tag-florida","12":"tag-jacksonville","13":"tag-jacksonville-jaguars","14":"tag-united-states","15":"tag-united-states-of-america","16":"tag-unitedstates","17":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","18":"tag-us","19":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115161807239307957","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207044","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=207044"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207044\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/207045"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=207044"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=207044"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=207044"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
