An offseason of change transitions to on the field results with the beginning of training camp for the Carolina Panthers. The franchise announced its training camp schedule ahead of its 30th season on Thursday afternoon. Rookies will report on July 19 and veterans will follow on July 23. The first day of practice will happen the next day on July 24.

Practices will be hosted at the team’s practice fields in Charlotte with 14 of them being free and open to the public. Each will include fan activities, concessions and opportunities for player autographs after practice concludes.

Training camp tickets will be available starting Tuesday, July 9. Fans can grab up to four free tickets for each of the open practices through Ticketmaster. Tickets will be limited. A complimentary mobile ticket is required for entry into each Training Camp practice.

General admission ticket entry will be at the Training Camp main entrance (705 W. 4th Street, Charlotte, NC 28202). Ticketed fans can enter one hour before practice starts. Fan access will end 30 minutes after practice has concluded.

Three key dates in the practice schedule to circle:

The Carolina Panthers are looking to turn things around after a tumultuous 2023-24 season where they finished with the worst record in the NFL at 2-15. The Panthers fired head coach Frank Reich and general manager Scott Fitterer, promoting assistant GM and former Panthers player Dan Morgan to Fitterer’s position and hiring former Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Dave Canales as the new head coach. Former No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young enters his second season with more offensive weapons at his disposal in the form of former Pittsburgh Steeler wide receiver Dionte Johnson and 2024 first-round pick, South Carolina wide receiver Xavier Legette.
