JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Shad Khan and Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry will be holding a groundbreaking ceremony this week to commemorate the start of new construction at the stadium.

The names of the much anticipated amphitheater and covered flex field will be announced during the ceremony along with the revealing of a new partner.

The two facilities totaling around $90 million worth of construction will most likely reflect the new partner that Shad Khan and the Jaguars have picked up since the projects were awarded to a construction agency in June.

An update regarding the estimated completion date for the two facilities can likely be expected, as it was originally announced that the projects would break ground sometime in July with a large portion of the facilities being completed by Spring of 2017.

The ground breaking ceremony is scheduled to be held at EverBank Field on Friday, August 19 at 9:30 a.m.
