Travel
Overview
TD Garden sits directly above MBTA North Station in downtown Boston. It's the most transit-accessible arena in the NBA, the train literally stops inside the building. If you're driving, expect downtown Boston's notoriously confusing streets and limited parking. Rideshare is convenient but surge pricing after games can be steep. For visitors staying in Back Bay, Cambridge, or the surrounding suburbs, the T is the clear winner.

Intelligence
Crowdsourced logistics and veteran shortcuts from the fan community. Every tip is voted on by fellow game-day veterans.
“The T to North Station is the best option. It's literally inside the arena. There's nothing to debate.”
“If driving from the suburbs, park at an outlying T station (Alewife, Braintree, Riverside) and ride in.”
“Boston's one-way streets are confusing even for locals. Use GPS navigation and follow garage signs.”
“Rideshare surge after games can double the normal rate. Walk 2-3 blocks for lower prices.”
“Game nights create heavy congestion on Causeway Street and Storrow Drive from 6-7:30 PM.”
“If staying at a downtown hotel, walk. The arena is centrally located and Boston is a walkable city.”
