The defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs will return to St. Joseph for a 13th year for Chiefs Training Camp presented by Mosaic Life Care on the Missouri Western Campus and dates have been announced for practices.
Practices will begin on Sunday July 23rd and will run through Thursday, August 17th. All training camp practices will be free to attend, except for a select few where there will be a charge to attend. Missouri Western will charge a $5 parking fee per vehicle at practice
Missouri Western will charge a $5 admission fee on Sunday July 23rd, Saturday July 29th which is the Chiefs Champions Tour, and on Saturday, August 5th which is Family Fun Day. The Chiefs will also host two exclusive days for Season Ticket Holders that will not be open to the public on Monday July 24th and Wednesday August 9th.
Due to the expected influx of people coming to training camp, once again tickets will need to be reserved ahead of time and attendance will be limited to provide the best experience. Ticket reservations will open on Wednesday June 21st at 10am for Season Ticket holders and on Thursday June 22nd for the public.
Fans are limited to reserving a maximum of six tickets per practice and can reserve up to a maximum of three separate practices. Those select paid payment practices will require a payment ahead of time to reserve tickets. Paid practice dates and Season Ticket Member dates do not count towards the maximum ticket reservation allotment of three practices.
New to this year, Chiefs Tailgate Suites will be available for purchase in the North Endzone for groups of 10 or more. Tailgate Suites offer a private viewing space next to the field with food & beverage and climate-controlled access in the Tailgate Suite.
