DATES SET FOR PACKERS TRAINING CAMP

The Green Bay Packers today announced the dates of practices that are open to the public for the 2023 Packers Training Camp, presented by Bellin Health. This marks Green Bay’s 78th training camp, a tradition that began in 1946 under Curly Lambeau.

As in the past, practices are scheduled to take place at Ray Nitschke Field and Packers Family Night will be at Lambeau Field. The times for practices that are open to the public will be announced at a later date.

With a theme of “Back to Football,” training camp kicks off with a practice on Wednesday, July 26. It will be the first of three open practices in four days as part of the opening week (July 27, 29).

The Packers will open the second week with three open practices (July 31, Aug. 1, 3) before Family Night takes place at Lambeau Field on Saturday, Aug. 5. Green Bay will have one open practice (August 7) before traveling to Cincinnati, where they will have a joint practice before facing the Bengals in the first preseason game on Aug. 11 at 6 p.m.

Green Bay will head back home, where it will have an open practice on Aug. 14 and then two joint practices against New England (Aug. 16-17) before facing the Patriots at Lambeau Field on Aug. 19 at 7 p.m.

The Packers finish off the open sessions of training camp with two practices (Aug. 22-23) before facing the Seattle Seahawks at Lambeau Field on Aug. 26.

Should inclement weather or any other factor force the team indoors, practices will be closed to the public due to space limitations inside the Don Hutson Center.

The annual Packers Family Night, presented by Bellin Health, is scheduled for Saturday evening, Aug. 5, at Lambeau Field. The format will be a full practice to accomplish the team’s preparation goals for the regular season. The evening remains family-focused and will feature a game-like atmosphere, featuring a thunderstick giveaway courtesy of Bellin Health, Roundy’s and Walbec Group, use of the video boards featuring promotions by Ariens, Brew Pub Pizza and other partners, gameday music and a fireworks show presented by Ticketmaster at the end of the night. The doors for the event will open at 5:30 p.m. and the team will take the field for warmups at 7 p.m. with practice starting at 7:30 p.m. Tickets will go on sale Thursday, June 29, at 10 a.m. Tickets again are mobile only and priced at $10, available for purchase solely online through Ticketmaster at Ticketmaster.com. There will be a limit of 10 tickets per purchase during the first day of ticket sales. All individuals, regardless of age, require a ticket for admittance. Parking for the event will be $5, with net proceeds to benefit Meijer Simply Give and its mission to support hunger-relief efforts. Cash payments for parking will no longer be accepted. Only credit cards or mobile payments will be accepted.

Green Bay’s home preseason games, presented by Cenex, are slated for Aug. 19 vs. New England and Aug. 26 against Seattle. The Packers’ lone road preseason contest is on Aug. 11 in Cincinnati. Both home games will have a charitable aspect to them, with the first contest designated as the Play Football Game and the second game as the Packers Give Back Game.

According to Discover Green Bay and a 2010 study by AECOM, training camp, along with Packers Family Night, presented by Bellin Health, could attract approximately 80,000 visitors from across the nation and as many as 20 foreign countries, with a total economic impact estimated at approximately $9 million.

The Packers will use their facilities at Lambeau Field for their entire training-camp operations, including practice, meals and meetings.

Returning to Packers Training Camp this year will be the American Family Insurance DreamDrive bike tradition, which will take place in its typical format. Kids are invited to bring their bikes to each open practice day and offer the players a ride from Lambeau Field to Ray Nitschke Field. The Bellin Bike Rodeo and free bike-helmet giveaway as well as the Bellin Training Camp Village will also return for the 2023 edition of camp. Further information about fan activities at training camp will be announced in the coming weeks.
