Bears vs. Packers Ticket Sale Dates

As of November 12, 2026, no official 2027 Bears–Packers game date or ticket-sale date has been announced, so there is no confirmed launch time or onsale platform for that matchup yet. The best guide is the recent pattern: the NFL schedule and Bears’ tickets appeared in mid-May. For a Bears home game, start at ChicagoBears.com/tickets and follow its Ticketmaster link.

The danger with a rivalry game is not just that seats can go quickly. It is that resale listings may appear before the teams announce primary tickets, while a low “from” price can vanish before checkout. I treat the NFL schedule reveal, a presale, a public onsale, and a resale listing as four different things. Knowing which one you are seeing helps you avoid false urgency and plan for the real release.

Expected Release Window and Timing Cadence

There is no confirmed 2027 onsale date or time. A reasonable planning estimate is mid-May 2027, based on the recent Bears schedule and ticket announcements on May 15, 2024, May 14, 2025, and May 14, 2026. That is a historical pattern, not a confirmed 2027 release. (chicagobears.com)

First, decide which game you mean: the Bears hosting at Soldier Field or the Packers hosting at Lambeau Field. The host team’s ticket process matters most. The NFL schedule announcement identifies the date, venue, and kickoff time, but it does not by itself promise that tickets go on sale at a particular time.

Chicago has released home-game tickets on the same day as its schedule news in recent seasons. For the 2026 season, Ticketmaster’s Bears–Packers event listing showed a general sale starting May 14, 2026, at 7:30 p.m. Central Time. That is a useful example, not a reliable clock time for 2027. (chicagobears.com)

Green Bay’s approach differs. Packers season tickets are allocated through established programs, and the team says single-game seats may become available if visiting teams return tickets. Fans are directed to check Ticketmaster during game week for those returned seats. Do not assume Green Bay will run a broad public onsale like Chicago’s. (packers.com)

The table shows why “the tickets go on sale in May” is not enough to plan a purchase. Bears home seats, Packers season-ticket allocations, returned visitor seats, and standing-room tickets can follow separate paths. For the 2027 game, a precise date and time should be treated as confirmed only when the team or its linked ticket seller publishes it.

Presale Access, Seller Selection, and Checkout

There is no confirmed 2027 presale registration date, code, cardholder window, or public onsale time yet. The verified early-access path on the Packers side is its Brown County drawing for eligible residents; Bears fans can sign up for official ticket alerts and watch the team’s ticket page. (packers.com)

Do not count on a generic “verified fan” program, a credit-card presale, or a code from an unofficial site. I would only act on an early-access offer if it appears on the team’s official channel or the authorized seller’s event page. A code does not guarantee that a seat will be available at a particular price.

Green Bay’s Brown County drawing has specific rules. Residents of Brown County, Wisconsin, who are at least 18 can register; Packers season-ticket holders and their spouses are excluded. The team accepts registrations year-round but advises registering by mid-February to be included in the main drawing. The drawing is held in early March, and selected residents are invoiced for four tickets to one randomly assigned game. (packers.com)

The 2025 drawing provides a concrete price example, not a 2027 quote: selected residents were invoiced at $146 per regular-season ticket, with payment due April 14, 2025. Those tickets were mobile-only and could not be resold on secondary marketplaces. (packers.com)

For a Bears home game, use the official Bears ticket page and its linked Ticketmaster event. The Bears say single-game tickets are sold through Ticketmaster, and their ticket FAQ notes that prices and limits vary by game. The listed four-ticket cap on the 2026 Bears–Packers Ticketmaster event is specific to that event; do not assume it will carry over to 2027. (chicagobears.com)

Primary-Sale and Resale Policies: Fees, Refunds, and Price Protection

Primary-sale prices and resale prices are separate. For 2027, there is no verified starting price yet. Compare the final checkout total, seat location, delivery method, and seller terms; neither an advertised starting price nor an old face-value number predicts what your chosen seat will cost. (chicagobears.com)

The Packers’ announced 2025 regular-season face prices ranged from $146 for end-zone seats to $196 between the 20-yard lines. Those figures were for the 2025 season and Packers ticket allocations, not a guaranteed public price for a 2027 Bears–Packers game. (packers.com)

Resale offers may appear well before primary tickets are released. That does not mean the seller has an official allotment or that the price is a bargain. Ticketmaster’s 2026 Bears–Packers page listed a separate resale onsale and general sale, illustrating that listings can belong to different channels even on one event page. (ticketmaster.com)

For a Bears home game, compare the official Ticketmaster listing with its verified resale options. For Green Bay, use the Packers’ official ticket page and its linked seller. The Packers direct fans to Ticketmaster for available returned tickets and NFL Ticket Exchange for season-ticket resale. Check transfer and delivery details before paying, and save the order confirmation. (chicagobears.com)

Step-by-Step Purchasing Playbook

Prepare for the schedule announcement and sale in separate stages. The NFL schedule sets the game details; the team and authorized seller provide the actual purchase instructions. As of November 12, 2026, neither has announced a 2027 matchup sale date or launch time. (nfl.com)

Before the drop

• Choose the host venue you want, and follow that team’s official ticket page.
• Create or verify your Ticketmaster account, confirm your email, and update your payment details.
• Sign up for Bears ticket alerts if you are targeting a Chicago home game. If eligible for the Packers’ Brown County drawing, register by mid-February for the main drawing.
• Set your budget using the full checkout total, not a resale listing’s headline price.
• Save official links. Avoid presale-code pages that do not identify the team or seller as the source. (chicagobears.com)

On drop day

Sign in before the stated start time and open the event from the team’s official page. Use one browser session unless the seller gives different instructions; opening many sessions can make it harder to track your queue or cart. Select seats by total price and location, then check quantity, delivery type, and fees before submitting payment.

Do not exceed the published ticket limit. The 2026 Bears–Packers Ticketmaster event showed a four-ticket limit and warned that orders above the limit could be canceled. That is a confirmed rule for that event only, not a promise about 2027. (ticketmaster.com)

After the drop

If primary seats are unavailable, do not assume the event is sold out for good. The Packers say returned visitor tickets may appear on Ticketmaster and advise checking during game week. Bears fans can use the team’s official page for updated availability and alerts. Compare new listings with resale totals rather than buying the first offer you see. (packers.com)

Real-World Purchasing Scenario and Strategy Breakdown

The 2026 Chicago-hosted matchup shows why it pays to separate the schedule reveal from the buying clock. The Bears announced their 2026 home tickets through Ticketmaster, and the Bears–Packers event listing gave a May 14, 2026, general-sale start time of 7:30 p.m. Central. A separate resale onsale appeared at 6:30 p.m. Central. (chicagobears.com)

A buyer who saw resale listings at 6:30 might have mistaken them for the only available inventory or assumed that a listing price was a team-set starting price. A better approach was to wait for the official event link, note the separate sale windows, and compare the all-in checkout total. The 2025 Bears announcement also noted that Ticketmaster displayed fees in its all-in price, giving buyers a clearer total to compare. (chicagobears.com)

The lesson is not that primary tickets will always be cheaper or plentiful. It is that a listing and an official public sale are not the same thing. For 2027, get the host and event page first, then compare valid offers on equal terms: same seat area, same quantity, total cost, and delivery conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do 2027 Bears–Packers tickets go on sale?

No 2027 sale date has been announced as of November 12, 2026. Recent Bears home-ticket releases occurred on May 15, 2024, May 14, 2025, and May 14, 2026. Mid-May 2027 is a historical estimate only; it is not a confirmed date or sale time. (chicagobears.com)

What time will the 2027 tickets drop?

There is no official 2027 launch time. Ticketmaster listed the 2026 Chicago-hosted game’s general sale at 7:30 p.m. Central on May 14, 2026, but that time does not establish a 2027 pattern. Wait for the event-specific listing linked from the host team’s site. (ticketmaster.com)

Where should I buy Bears–Packers tickets?

Start on the host team’s official ticket page and follow its link to the authorized seller. For Bears home games, the Bears direct fans to Ticketmaster. Packers ticket information includes links to Ticketmaster and NFL Ticket Exchange. Do not treat an unrelated resale listing as the official primary sale. (chicagobears.com)

Is the 2027 game at Soldier Field or Lambeau Field?

That is not confirmed yet. “Bears vs. Packers” alone does not specify the host or venue. Confirm the 2027 schedule first, then use the home team’s ticket page to find the correct event and authorized purchase link.

What will 2027 tickets cost?

No verified 2027 starting price has been published. For context only, the Packers listed 2025 regular-season face prices from $146 to $196 by seating area. Bears pricing can vary by game and demand, so neither figure predicts a 2027 rivalry-game price. (packers.com)

Are Bears–Packers tickets available before the official sale?

Resale listings may appear before or alongside the primary sale. Ticketmaster’s 2026 event page showed separate resale and general-sale times. Check which channel a listing belongs to, compare the final total, and confirm transfer and delivery details before buying. (ticketmaster.com)

Can Brown County residents get Packers tickets?

Eligible Brown County residents age 18 and older can register for the Packers’ annual drawing, with exclusions for season-ticket holders and their spouses. The team accepts registrations year-round and recommends registering by mid-February for the main March drawing. Selection is not guaranteed. (packers.com)

Will Packers tickets be released during game week?

The Packers say returned visitor tickets may be made available through Ticketmaster and advise fans to check during game week. That is a possible later source of inventory, not a guaranteed release for the Bears game or a promised sale time. (packers.com)

Is there a 2027 presale code or cardholder window?

No verified 2027 code, cardholder presale, or registration deadline has been announced. Use only presale details posted by the team or its linked ticket seller. A code from an unofficial site does not prove that it is valid or that seats will be available.

Do ticket prices get refunded if they fall later?

Do not assume they will. The verified ticket information reviewed here does not promise an automatic refund or price adjustment if a resale listing drops after purchase. Read the seller’s terms before checkout, and keep the order confirmation and ticket-delivery details.
