Fans have been asked to step into Bears territory this summer and join them for training camp. Participants will be offered an up-close view of the practice and their favorite player. Additionally, fans are able to enjoy activities, virtual reality, and games. Plus, they will have the chance to grab some photos and autographs.
Chicago Bears Training Camp will take place July 26 through August 14. The Bears’ practice camp will be at Halas Hall. People will be able to join any of the nine public Training Camp practices.
Activities During the Training Camp
Anyone who wants to join the Training Camp fun will need to have a ticket. However, the experience is free but it is a first come, first served situation,
Bears Training Camp tickets will be available starting July 6 at 10 a.m. Fans will be able to select up to four tickets per day. The number of tickets will be based on availability and will be distributed as mobile tickets.
“Parking will not be available for fans at Halas Hall, within Conway Park, or at neighboring businesses,” according to the Chicago Bears website. However, they will have free parking for the fans at Hawthorn Mall off of Town Rd in Vernon Hills. From there people will be able to catch a shuttle bus — which will run regularly — to and from Halas Hall or within Conway Park.
Stay Tuned
In addition to the games and photo opportunities, there will be appearances by Staley Da Bear, Monster Squad, and the Chicago Drumline.
