Buffalo Bills Expand Fan Access at Highmark Stadium

New Practice Schedule Unveiled

The Bills are rolling out a fresh way for fans to experience the squad at the upcoming Highmark Stadium. This offseason move adds another layer of engagement for the fanbase. The changes include a restricted open practice and an additional session later in the summer.

The team initially disclosed its training‑camp timetable, which traditionally features the annual Return of Blue & Red scrimmage in Orchard Park. That event will now be limited to ticketed fans in 2026. In the past, anyone could attend, but the new policy narrows the audience.

Casual supporters who had previously enjoyed free entry expressed disappointment over the new restriction. The Buffalo News reported a workaround: a second open practice set for August 18. This extra date gives the broader fan base another chance to watch the roster work out.

PSL Holders Get Priority

Buffalo’s president of business operations, Pete Guelli, said the first session will be dominated by season‑ticket and PSL owners. He pointed out that PSL holders now have assigned seats, a shift from the general‑admission format of earlier years. Guelli warned that only a modest share of tickets may remain for non‑season‑ticket fans.

Ticket Release Details

General‑admission fans can still secure a spot by waiting for the secondary practice, with tickets hitting the market on July 21. The staggered release helps the Bills balance demand while honoring the rights of season‑ticket and PSL owners. Bills Wire will continue to provide updates as the offseason unfolds.
