The Jacksonville Jaguars will ramp up preparations for the 2011 NFL season with special ticket office hours and events at EverBank Field ahead of their first home preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons on Friday, August 19.
The Jaguars have launched an extensive traditional and internet marketing campaign throughout the First Coast promoting "It's Go Time" to encourage fans still without season tickets to buy now.
To celebrate the return to football, the Jaguars will host a special "Back to Football Night" at the Florida Blue Health & Wellness Practice Fields on Thursday, July 28, starting at 5 p.m.
The "Back to Football Night," held during the Jaguars' first evening training camp practice of 2011 will feature opportunities for fans to get autographs from players and coaches at the end of practice as well as appearances from The Roar and Jaxson De Ville and performances from the D-Line and a live band.
On Friday, July 29th, the Jaguars will open EverBank Field from 4 to 9 p.m. to host the first of a series of "Select-Your-Seat"events at the stadium in the run-up to the new season, during which fans will be able to park free in Lots M and J and visit the stadium to view and purchase any available season ticket seats. Following Friday's Select-Your-Seat opening, the Jaguars will host regular "Select-Your-Seat Saturdays" beginning on Saturday, July 30, from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.
In addition to hosting these events, the Jaguars have also announced extended hours for the ticket office at EverBank Field to allow fans who have not yet purchased 2011 season tickets more time to call or come to the stadium to secure their seats. The ticket office, located on the West side of the stadium behind the Touchdown jaguar statue, will be open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. and on Saturdays from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. Fans can also purchase season tickets online by visiting jaguars.com/tickets.
