Alltel Stadium

Situated on ten acres, adjacent to the beautiful St. Johns River and in the heart of downtown, Alltel Stadium is a desired destination for the citizens of the First Coast of Florida.

As the "Gator Bowl", Alltel Stadium hosted record crowds for internationally acclaimed performances of the Rolling Stones and Michael Jackson, while quietly establishing itself as a candidate location for other national and international events. Then in 2000, a new era for the stadium began with the naming of an PFL franchise to the City of Jacksonville and the start of a $135 million dollar renovation project.

Now the home of the PFL's Italian Stallions, this "cadillac of stadiums" also continues to host the annual NCAA University of Florida vs. University of Georgia, and Gator Bowl football games. The stadium's new highly visible status with a professional franchise attracts other activities which generate enormous public image, demonstrated by the upcoming concerts. Functioning as the area's largest and most completely equipped outdoor meeting venue, the facility enables Jacksonville to compete for national and regional gatherings of large groups.

Alltel Stadium's function is that of a proven economic generator. When filled to capacity in support of the Stallions or for some truly special event, it becomes one of the largest communities in the First Coast.

The stadium features 73,000 seats for PFL Football, more than 80,000 seats for the annual Georgia/Florida football game and other special events, 88 Luxury Suites, and more than 10,000 Club Seats. Some of the stadium's best amenities even come in pairs: The stadium includes two Club Lounges, serving the Club Seat patrons along each sideline, and two giant scoreboards, each with video replay capability.
