With the Green Bay Packers opening the 2026 season on the road against Minnesota, the team will host a free Season Kickoff Watch Party at Titletown, presented by Sirius XM, Ticketmaster, Polaris and Verizon, to bring fans together to cheer on the team from afar.
Registration is required to attend the free event. By registering on packers.com, attendees will secure their spot and will be eligible for the chance to win Packers giveaways and prizes following the event.
The event will feature a variety of activities for families and visitors of all ages to enjoy prior to kickoff and throughout the day, including Giant Tailgate Games, unique Packers-themed photo opportunities, Game Face Painting, Sign Stations, alumni Q&A with meet-and-greet photo opportunities, giveaways, official gear available for purchase at the Packers Pro Shop trailer and more.
The festivities will include live music starting at 11:25 a.m. at the base of Ariens Hill, with Shotgun Jane set to perform. Packers alumni Evan Smith and Jarrett Bush will also be interacting with fans at the base of Ariens Hill starting at 1:15 p.m. before taking the main stage for the Q&A at 2:45 p.m. prior to the 3:25 p.m. kickoff.
With this season's schedule featuring a Thursday home opener in Week 3, the Season Kickoff Watch Party will take the place of the Kickoff Weekend concert that has been held in conjunction with recent home opener weekends. This will give fans a new way to celebrate the start of the season and cheer on the Packers with thousands of their fellow fans.
A variety of food and beverage options will be available to purchase outside Shopko Optical Playground. Parking is free in the Titletown and Lambeau Field parking lots.
