Here's a look at everything fans need to know about going to watch the Cowboys practice at 2026 training camp.

The Cowboys will hold several practices open to the public, and while admission is free and no ticket is needed, entry is on a first-come, first-served basis until max capacity is reached. The entrance is located at 2501 Ventura Road.

Those attending via general admission can enter the field two hours before practice begins at 11:45 a.m. PDT.

Fans can buy "Dallas Cowboys Fan Experiences Tickets," which enable entry 30 minutes before the general public and other perks.

The tickets range from $20 for sideline access, and then $100 to $150 for Yaamava' Hospitaliy Deck access. The former price is for practices from Monday through Thursday, and the latter price is for sessions from Friday to Sunday. Parking is not included.

What's the parking situation?

The parking entrance is located at 2501 Ventura Road.

As is the case with spots at training camp, entry is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Carpooling and ride-sharing are recommended. Parking will cost $20 per day for small vehicles and $40 per day for bigger ones.

Parking lots will open about three hours before practice begins at 11:45 a.m. PDT.

Because training camp practices will be outdoors and in the afternoon, make sure you're equipped for the heat.

And because training camp spots are on a first-come, first-serve basis, make sure you get there early enough to beat the crowds.
