NFL Draft in Green Bay: Start planning now if you want to go

WAUSAU, Wis. (WXCO) – From ride arrangements to parking plans and a special app you’ll need for reserving tickets, Packers officials want Wisconsinites prepared.

Fans who want to attend the NFL Draft in Green Bay this Spring, should start planning their visit now.

First, download the NFL One Pass app. This is what the league is using to communicate with fans. It has when tickets will be available and where you should go to enter. Tickets are free, but you’ll have to register for them in advance on the app.

Early next month, they anticipate more information will be available such as transportation and parking. But you can plan now and look for shuttle buses from outside communities to be a popular option. Homeowners and businesses around Lambeau will have cash parking options. There will also be satellite lots offering park-and-ride shuttles to the front gates.

Packers officials say it’s expected to bring hundreds of thousands of fans to the area over three days. Last year’s event in Detroit brought about 775,000 people to downtown Detroit, with 275,000 on the first day alone.

The draft is scheduled to be held at Lambeau Field and its adjacent Titletown District in Green Bay on April 24–26, 2025.

Temperatures late April in Green Bay are typically in the upper 50s.

Festivities will include several days of activities and live music throughout Green Bay and will feature the NFL Draft Experience. That’s a massive free football festival right by Lambeau Field that lets fans of all teams enjoy games, interactive exhibits, player appearances, sponsor experiences, youth-focused activities and opportunities to test their football skills.

The event also includes the NFL Draft Theater, where picks are announced by the Commissioner and other special guests.
