The Packers will welcome the Baltimore Ravens to Green Bay this week for a joint practice, set for Thursday, Aug. 22, prior to the preseason game between the two teams on Saturday, Aug. 24. Thursday will also mark the final open practice at the 2024 Packers Training Camp.

The practice will take place at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday. The Ravens will begin practice on Clarke Hinkle Field, on the west side of the Don Hutson Center, before joining the Packers on Ray Nitschke Field on the east side of the Don Hutson Center for the joint portion of each practice.

To ensure the Ravens players experience one of the most storied training camp traditions in the NFL, kids of all fan affiliations are encouraged to bring their bikes to Lambeau Field to offer rides to both Ravens and Packers players prior to practice. Many Ravens players may choose to ride a bike to practice if there are enough bikes available, so fans and community members are asked to welcome the team in true Green Bay fashion.

To offer rides to the Ravens, kids are asked to line up with their bikes near the visitor's locker room door, located adjacent to the Invisalign Gate on the south end of Lambeau Field off Valley View Road. Kids can line up as early as 8 a.m., but are asked to be in place by 9:30 for when Ravens players make their way to practice. A bike corral will be set up to guide kids and players from the locker room door as they travel east through Lambeau Field parking lot and across Oneida Street. Ravens players will enter Clarke Hinkle Field through a gate in its surrounding fence.

During practice, kids can line their bikes against Clarke Hinkle Field’s fence and wait until its conclusion when they can offer their bikes again for returning players exiting through that same gate.

To ensure a smooth and safe ride to practice, law enforcement will direct traffic on Oneida between Lombardi Avenue and Mike McCarthy Way during pre- and post-practice movements. Visitors should note that Packers players will continue riding bikes as well with normal DreamDrive operations taking place outside Oneida Nation Gate.

The Lambeau Field Atrium offers several activities during training camp including visits to Packers Pro Shop, Packers Hall of Fame, and Lambeau Field Stadium Tours. Additionally, 1919 Kitchen & Tap opens daily at 11 a.m., while Johnsonville Tailgate Village along with various food trucks provide food and beverages options.

In recent years, joint practices have become common for Packers’ preseason preparations; hosting teams like Houston Texans, New York Jets, New Orleans Saints, and New England Patriots in Green Bay.
