- Jaguars vs. Chiefs: Game day fan guide to parking, traffic, pregame and ingame activities
It should be a playoff atmosphere for the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday night when they host the Kansas City Chiefs at EverBank Stadium.
A sellout is expected as the Jags (3-1) face the Chiefs (2-2) for the sixth time in the last seven years, and for the third time at home.

Given the changes in parking lots and entry to the stadium due to ongoing construction on the Stadium of the Future , as well as increased traffic, the Jaguars are advising fans to arrive early and exercise patience.

However, fans will see progress on the Stadium of the Future with the first of four grand staircases open. The ribbon was cut on the Grand Staircase One, located in the Southwest corner of the stadium, on Oct. 3 and will be ready for use for the Chiefs game.
The Jaguars remind fans to have their mobile parking passes downloaded and saved before arriving.
Navigating around EverBank Stadium
Guests in general admission seating should access the main concourse for full 360-degree circulation around the stadium because the plaza level is no longer continuous from gate to gate. Some gate entries have been adjusted so ticket holders should review the recommended gate entry on their mobile ticket for each game to access the most direct route to a seat location. Guests should exit at the gate closest to their transportation.

Mobility assistance will be offered to those who request it near each stadium entry gate. Signage and Guest Services will be available to guide ticket holders. Teal golf carts will be traveling around the stadium to pick up fans in Lots S, X, Z, the Fairgrounds and Metropolitan Park.

Jaguars uniform combination
The Jaguars will be wearing their throwback uniforms with the "Prowling Jaguar" on the shoulder. It will be the second of four games wearing the uniforms, with three of them against AFC South opponents.

The next time the throwbacks will be worn will be Dec. 7 vs. Indianapolis and the Week 18 home game against Tennessee , at a date yet to be determined (either Jan. 3 or 4).
The Jaguars are 2-0 over the last two seasons wearing the throwbacks.
Fan Entertainment Zone
Located on the southwest plaza level adjacent to Daily's Place, the Fan Entertainment Zone (FEZ), in partnership with Wolfson's Children's, has more than 20 activations to explore. Due to Stadium of the Future construction and limited plaza access, fans can experience the activities by entering the stadium only through Gates 4 and 7 or via the main concourse level to the escalators near the Bud Light Zone to the plaza level beginning three hours prior to each home game.
