TAMPA — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will open eight training camp practices to fans at the AdventHealth Training Center beginning July 30, with players reporting two days earlier on July 28 as the franchise pushes for a playoff return after an aggressive offseason roster overhaul.
Three of the eight sessions will be open to the general public — July 30, August 6 and August 7 — while the remaining five are reserved for Krewe Members, corporate partners and other select groups. Seven of the eight practices start at 8:30 a.m.; the exception is the annual night practice on August 4, a Krewe Members-only session inside the team’s indoor facility beginning at 7:00 p.m.
“We’re counting down the days until we can welcome Buccaneers fans back to AdventHealth Training Center for the start of training camp and the 2026 season,” said Buccaneers Chief Operating Officer Brian Ford. “Training camp is our first opportunity to share the excitement and momentum that our players, coaches, and front office have built throughout the offseason. The passion and energy that our fans bring to these practices plays a crucial role in helping our players prepare for an exciting season that is on the horizon. Our entire organization is eager to get to work as we continue pursuing another championship.”
Players will hit the field for the first time on July 29 for a 90-minute closed session without pads. Following the first open practice on July 30, players will join visitors from the Special Olympics for on-field drills. The first off day falls on August 1, and the team will don full pads for the first time on August 3 — Military Day, presented by USAA, which will feature a welcome address, a National Anthem performance and special demonstrations for military personnel.
The NFL’s annual Back Together Weekend falls on August 2, when the Buccaneers will host a session reserved exclusively for Jr. Bucs — families with fans 14 and under. August 6 brings She Is Football Day, presented by AdventHealth, celebrating female fans and women in sports, and is open to the general public. An autograph session exclusively for Krewe Members will run from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. before the August 4 night practice.
Digital tickets are required for all open practices. Krewe Members can secure tickets beginning June 16, with general admission tickets available starting June 22 at Buccaneers.com. A reservation fee applies. Free parking will be available at GEICO Lot at 4201 N. Himes Ave., across from Raymond James Stadium, opening 1.5 hours before each practice. Fans unable to attend can watch via Buccaneers.com, the team’s YouTube channel and the Buccaneers app, where senior writer Scott Smith and team reporter Casey Phillips will host Training Camp Report presented by AdventHealth.
The final open practice, reserved for Krewe Members, is set for August 9. The team then heads to New York for joint practices with the Jets ahead of the preseason opener on August 14.
