Patriots Training Camp is one of our favorite free summer activities each year. We get a chance to see the Patriots practice up close, and play on the many inflatables set up in the Fan Zone. It’s a hit with all three kids!
Select practices are open to the public, and are held on the fields next to Gillette Stadium. Grab a seat in the stands or on the grass and watch your favorite players during the scheduled dates and times (listed below).
After practice different players are available for autographs, so get there early to snag a front row seat, and don’t forget to bring something for them to sign. We got Vince Wilfork and Chandler Jones to sign a football for my son a few years ago, he was thrilled!
The Patriots Fan Zone is open for times that coincide with the practice sessions. Kids can test their skills on the inflatable slides, obstacle courses, kicking/throwing stations and more. There is a lot to do over here, enough to spend an hour or two with the kids, but depending on the day lines can get long. It can be really HOT, so bring drinks! Refreshments are also available for purchase, and bathrooms (well, port-a-potties) are on site as well.
