Dallas Cowboys Training Camp

The Dallas Cowboys are returning to Oxnard for their 2023 Training Camp at River Ridge Fields! This is the 44th year that the team has trained in Southern California and the 17th season the club has spent all or a portion of its camp in Oxnard.

We are thrilled to welcome back Dallas Cowboys Training Camp as the team and their fans make a huge impact on local businesses. An economic impact study conducted several ago found that more than 50,000 people attend training camp and spend nearly $4 million on local hotels, shopping and restaurants. 

Since 2010, the WVCBA (previously as the Oxnard Chamber of Commerce) has created the exclusive Oxnard Training Camp Souvenir Program — a full-color booklet distributed for free to everyone attending team practice. The program includes the training camp roster, training camp and regular season schedules, autograph pages, and advertisements for local businesses.

Grab the program when you're at camp, post a photo on social media and tag @wvcballiance. We'll share your photo!

Fans love collecting the souvenir program!
