Lambeau Field is set to welcome fans for Sunday afternoon's home opener between the Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts. Kickoff is scheduled for noon.

Kickoff Weekend festivities will begin at 5 p.m. on Saturday with a concert event presented by SiriusXM, Ticketmaster, and Polaris. The concert will feature American rock band Counting Crows outside Lambeau Field in the stadium's northwest side parking lot.

This weekend also marks the Packers' annual Alumni Weekend. More than 50 former Packers players from various eras will be welcomed back on the field at halftime of Sunday's game. Dave Robinson and Marv Fleming will greet fans and sign autographs from 10:30-11:30 a.m. in the U.S. Cellular Loft.

Game attendees are advised to ensure they have the latest version of the Packers app downloaded to their mobile devices and that their tickets are saved in their device's mobile wallet for smooth entry into the stadium.

Additionally, Lambeau Field and all its businesses operate cashless, including parking. Concession stands and other terminals around the stadium feature tap-to-pay technology, allowing faster transactions. Those without credit/debit cards or contactless payment solutions may use a cash-to-card conversion station located in the Atrium.

Fans are encouraged to explore both upper and lower concourses to enjoy efficient grab-and-go concessions and market-style stands. The Miller Lite End Zone on the north side of the stadium includes a grab-and-go market and a climate-controlled bar space, along with numerous large LED screens throughout both levels of the concourse to stay updated on game action while away from seats.

Packers Perks members attending Sunday's game can visit the Packers Perks Donut House in the Lambeau Field Atrium for a free Kwik Trip Glazer donut while supplies last. Starting two hours before kickoff, members can input their email at tablets provided at the Donut House kiosk; if recognized as associated with a Packers Perks account, a donut will be dispensed.

Fireworks will be set off from the stadium roof one hour prior to kickoff as a reminder for fans to head toward the stadium by kickoff time. Fans entering all gates will receive a "Kickoff Weekend" flag upon entry, courtesy of SiriusXM, Ticketmaster, and Polaris.

Before the national anthem, U.S.Army veteran AJ McKinney will be recognized through Operation Fan Mail on-field. Country music duo Neon Moon will perform the national anthem, followed by a flyover by Wisconsin Air National Guard’s 115th Fighter Wing based in Madison. During halftime, high school teams Bay Port Pirates and Neenah Rockets will compete in the High School Quarterback Challenge.

The stadium safety policy prohibits bags or purses unless they are clear and no larger than 12" by 6" by 12." All fans must pass through walk-through metal detectors upon entry; there is no exit/re-entry for noon games. Parking lots open Sunday at 8 a.m., with stadium gates opening at 10 a.m., while ticket holders can access The Atrium starting at 8 a.m via American Family Insurance Gate. Wheelchair assistance is limited and available on a first-come basis; guests with mobility challenges are encouraged to bring their own wheelchairs.

Fans can visit Johnsonville Tailgate Village in the east side parking lot from 8 a.m until one hour after game ends. It features live music from Star Six Nine along with food, beverages, and tailgating activities.
