Music starts at 5pm; gates open at 430pm; and the practice starts at 7pm.

    Free parking is available at Baldwin-Wallace College, about a half-mile from the training complex. A free shuttle connects the fan entrance and the lots. Handicap parking is available at the Berea Recreation Center on Front Street. A shuttle also runs from this lot.

    Admission and Entrances:

    Admission to all practice sessions is free, except for family night (which carries a $5 admission fee that goes towards Cleveland Browns charities). Gates open one hour prior to each practice session and close one hours after the practice ends.

    Visitor Facilities:

    Facilities at the Cleveland Browns training complex include bleacher seating as well as wheelchair accessible seating. Visitors may also bring folding camp chairs or lawn chairs. The facility features several food concessions and a Browns team shop.

    Autographs:

    Children 12 and under are selected each day at random to obtain an autograph. Tokens are given to those selected, which may be redeemed at the autograph tents after the session. Tokens are redeemed by the first available player in each tent and players signing schedule is not announced.
