The NFL is looking for youth ages 3-14 to take part in a bike ride during the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay to celebrate a Green Bay Packers tradition.

Kids providing their bicycles to players to ride to practice during training camp is an enduring tradition in Green Bay. It started in 1958 and continues today, as youngsters and players ride from Lambeau Field to the practice field.

As part of the handoff of the draft from Detroit to Green Bay in May 2024, an NFL draft football was delivered by bicycle to Green Bay. About 100 youngsters joined the ride from the Ray Nitschke practice field to the Lambeau Field Atrium.

The NFL Draft Bike Parade will be from 8-9 a.m. April 26. You can sign up here.

According to the NFL:

  • All bicyclists will access the NFL draft entry on Armed Forces Drive at 8 a.m.
  • They will proceed through security with their bike only, no outside bags or items.
  • They will leave the draft prior to the 9 a.m. gate opening time.
  • All bikes will need to be returned to vehicles or homes as there is no bike storage or parking.
