The Cincinnati Bengals will open eight practices to the general public during training camp this summer, and three additional sessions will be open exclusively to season ticket members and those on the waitlist.

Training camp kicks off July 23 with the first of those open practices. The last session open to the general public is Aug. 3. Season ticket members and waitlist members will have special access July 27 and Aug. 9, and club members will be able to attend exclusively Aug. 10.

The Bengals also will hold a special Saturday night practice in Paycor Stadium at 6 p.m. on August 2 that will be free and open to the public. Gates open at 5 p.m. that day, and fans will be able to experience a variety of family-friendly activities and photo opportunities throughout the stadium. Dan Hoard and Dave Lapham will provide live commentary during practice.

Tickets are required for the night practice and will be made available at no cost through the Bengals app starting July 22 for season ticket holders and waitlist members and July 23 for the general public.

The NFL Clear Bag Policy will be in effect for the Saturday night stadium practice, as well as for any of the other sessions open to the public.

New this year, the Bengals will be practicing at 10 a.m. for open training camp sessions at the Kettering Health Practice Fields located just west of Paycor Stadium. The entrance is located on the corner of Central Avenue and West Pete Rose Way, and fans are encouraged to park in Lot 1, Lot A or Lot B for practices at established prices.

The Kettering Health Practice Fields have bleacher seating for 1,100 fans next to the fields, plus additional standing room along the sidelines, but fans are encourage to arrive early since capacity is limited and admission is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Admission is free and no ticket is required for those eight practices open to the general public. Concessions and merchandise also will be available for purchase with credit or debit cards.

Bengals players will sign autographs for fans along the sidelines following practices, as different position groups will be available each day.

EXCLUSIVE SEASON TICKET MEMBER PRACTICES

Season Ticket Members and Waitlist Members will have access to three exclusive practices. Members will be able to select an exclusive practice and claim free tickets in the Bengals app on Monday, July 21. Fans can visit bengals.com/tickets to learn more about the Season Ticket Member Waitlist.
