Chiefs 2026 training camp: every key date, which practices are open, and what each one costs

The Kansas City Chiefs' published 2026 training camp calendar in St. Joseph — report dates, the first public practice, the two member-only days, the three paid-admission dates, and when camp breaks.

All dates are local to St. Joseph, Missouri (Central Time). Daily practice start times are announced separately by the club and change through camp — check the official schedule before you travel.

  1. Event · Friday, July 24

    Quarterbacks and rookies report

    The first arrivals at Missouri Western State University. No public practice on this date.

  2. Deadline · Tuesday, July 28

    Remaining players report

    The rest of the roster is due in by this date, ahead of the first practice.

  3. Event · Wednesday, July 29

    Camp opens — Season Ticket Member day, closed to the general public

    The first practice of the Chiefs' 16th camp on the Missouri Western campus, and one of two exclusive days for season ticket members. Parking is free on this date. If you are not a member, this is not the day.

  4. Event · Thursday, July 30

    First practice open to the general public — free

    The earliest date anyone can attend without a season ticket. Admission is free; the university's $8 per-vehicle parking charge applies.

  5. Event · Saturday, August 1

    Public practice — $7 university admission

    One of three dates on which Missouri Western charges a $7 admission fee. The fee is the university's, not the club's, and is separate from parking.

  6. Event · Friday, August 7

    Public practice — $7 university admission

    The second of the three paid-admission dates. Parking is charged separately at $8 per vehicle.

  7. Event · Saturday, August 8

    Family Fun Day — $7 university admission

    The camp's family-oriented session and the third paid-admission date. Expect the heaviest attendance of the public dates.

  8. Event · Tuesday, August 11

    Season Ticket Member day — closed to the general public

    The second and final members-only session. Parking is free for attendees on this date.

  9. Event · Thursday, August 20

    Camp concludes in St. Joseph

    The final date of the St. Joseph camp at the Mosaic Training Fields. Preparation moves back to the team's own facility after this.

How this is calculated

A straight transcription of the dates the Chiefs and Missouri Western State University published for the 2026 camp, arranged in calendar order. Each entry states whether the session is open to the general public, restricted to season ticket members, or carries the university's admission charge, exactly as announced. Nothing is inferred: dates the club has not published are not listed, and no practice time is asserted, because daily start times are released separately and change.

Assumptions, limitations & sources

Assumptions

  • · Dates are those announced by the club for the 2026 camp at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, Missouri.
  • · Admission and parking charges are those announced by the university, and are collected by the university rather than the club.

Limitations

  • · Camp schedules move. Practices get cancelled for weather, shortened, or closed on short notice, and the club is the only authority on the day.
  • · Daily practice start times are not listed here because they are announced separately and change through camp — check the club's schedule page before travelling.
  • · Ticket availability is not status information. Tickets were released in June and popular dates can be gone; this tool cannot tell you what is left.
  • · Nothing here is a report on player availability. Who practises on any given day is decided that morning.

Chiefs camp opens July 29 with Mahomes cleared to practise in full — and how to actually attend

Kansas City reports to St. Joseph this week for a camp with more riding on it than any in a decade: a quarterback back from a torn ACL, a new lead back, and a 6-11 season to answer for. Most practices are free and open to the public — here are the dates that are not.
