Bruce Springsteen Postpones His Connecticut, Albany Show: What About Boston?

Bruce Springsteen In Boston: Here's Everything You Need To Know

• Parking At TD Garden

  I always like to start with PARKING, because THAT’S always the first question we ask when we see a show! While it’s pricy, the North Station Garage for me, is the best bet. If you get there early, there are a few pubs and restaurants within walking distance, weather permitting.

  Right off the Garden website:

  With the most convenient parking for every game and show, the North Station Garage, located directly underneath TD Garden, offers a flat event rate* of $54 when you enter 2 and 1/2 hours prior to the scheduled event time. Elevators located in the parking garage will bring you directly to the main concourse in North Station.

  The garage phone number for general information such as rates and height limits is 617-222-3042.

  You can also reserve your parking: 

• Bag Policy

  

  THIS is important. We MISSED the first TWO songs at Paul McCartney at FENWAY, because my poor wife Heidi, had a purse that was TOO BIG for the metal detectors.

  To uphold health and safety protocols, minimize contact, and ensure a swifter entry process, TD Garden strongly discourages guests from bringing bags to events.
  If a bag is necessary, the following restrictions and processes apply:
  •    Backpacks of any size are considered prohibited items and are not allowed into the arena.
  Bags that measure larger than 14”x14”x6” are considered prohibited items and are not allowed into the arena.
  Bags that measure between 14”x 14”x6” and 6”x4”x1.5” (including clear bags and ProShop powered by ‘47 bags) are subject to x-ray screening and visual inspection.
  •    Bags that measure smaller than 6” x 4” x 1.5” may proceed through express screening lanes for visual inspection.
  •    Diaper bags and bags needed for medical reasons are allowed but will be subject to x-ray screening. We kindly ask that you reach out to TD Garden Customer Service (customerservice@tdgarden.com) 24 hours prior to your event if you want to arrange for additional accommodations before arrival.

  Reminder: Patrons with prohibited items will not be permitted entry to the arena. TD Garden does not provide on-site storage. Guests are asked to plan accordingly and allow for extra time when arriving to TD Garden.

  Exceptions to this bag policy may be made for extenuating circumstances such as medical needs and diaper bags. Please contact TD Garden’s Guest Experience team if you require additional information or guidance – customerservice@tdgarden.com or 617-624-1331.
