The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will play the 50th season in franchise history in 2025, and to get ready for that historic campaign with a three-week training camp at the AdventHealth Training Center in July and August. As always, the majority of the training camp practices will be open to fan viewing, with covered bleacher seating, opportunities for interaction with players, and merchandise and concessions for sale.
The Buccaneers will have fans in attendance at nine practices between July 24 and August 7; the sessions on July 24 and 25 and August 1 will be open to the general public, with the team hosting Krewe Members, corporate partners and other select groups at the other six.

Sign up here to be notified when general tickets officially become available.
Training camp practices at team headquarters are a cherished franchise tradition that brings the team and its fans closer every summer. Fans get an opportunity to see how the team prepares for competition and watch players battle for spots on the depth chart, and the presence of the crowd energizes a squad working very hard in a frequently steamy environment.
"Our fans bring a special energy to our training camp practices, and we are excited to welcome them back to AdventHealth Training Center as we gear up for our very special 50th season of Buccaneers football," said Chief Operating Officer Brian Ford. "Our players, coaches, and front office have been hard at work all offseason, and our entire organization is looking forward to interacting with fans during the much-anticipated start to this momentous season for our franchise."
All but one of the Buccaneers' nine open practices will take place in the morning, usually beginning at 8:30 a.m. The exception will be on Tuesday, July 29, when the team conducts a night practice inside its indoor facility, beginning at 7:00 p.m. Prior to the practice, from 4:15-5:15 p.m., the team will hold an autograph session where Krewe Members can get autographs from Buccaneer players.
The night practice will also be the first one in which the players where full pads and full contact is permitted. Per NFL guidelines, teams use the first five days of camp as an acclimation period, with non-padded practices gradually increasing in length. Players are also required to have a day off after three straight practice days. The first two open practices, on July 24 and 25, are part of the NFL's "Back Together Weekend," league-wide initiative that celebrates local communities with club-led fan events, with Sunday's practice geared towards youth open to Jr. Bucs Members and local youth flag football league participants. Families with Buccaneers fans 14 and under are still eligible to sign up and join the Jr. Bucs Fan Club.
Other special promotions include a Youth Flag Football Day, a Military Day and a She Is Football Day. Here is the full schedule of open practice sessions during the Buccaneers' 2025 training camp at the AdventHealth Training Center:
