Create an itinerary including TD Garden
Home of the National Basketball Association Celtics and National Hockey League Bruins and host of numerous concerts and special events, TD Garden stands as one of Boston's leading entertainment venues. Originally known as the Boston Garden, the revamped arena seats almost 20,000 people and offers three private restaurants, 90 executive suites, and a multimillion-dollar, high-definition scoreboard and replay screen. If you don't have tickets for an event, you can still take a tour on which you will see how the trademark parquet floor is put together for a game, learn about the teams that play, and sit in executive seats. The arena also serves as Boston's northern station for its commuter and regional trains. With our world travel planner, Boston attractions like TD Garden can be center stage of your vacation plans, and you can find out about other attractions like it, unlike it, near it, and miles away.

  • Absolutely amazing place. Its the Garden. General admission is a great time. But if you can manage the sportsdeck its even better. Private buffet of food and desserts. Private bar and service. The view is also great with table top in front of you to be able to eat and drink. Suite status without the price. Cannot say enough good things. The staff and services are top notch. And a special thank you to the usher working the November 9th game. He deserves recognition.
  • Awesome stadium with great views in all the seats. Physical seats are comfortable, with the most comfortable seats being closest to the floor, and box seats. The nose-bleed seats have steep stairs but it is manageable with the railing. The concessions are stadium pricing but it’s expected. The pro shops and memorabilia stands are also expensive but again, expected. Even the longest lines are not too bad and move quickly at the bar/concessions/stores. I did have trouble locating a straw once, but other than that, the condiments are located only a few feet away from all food. The food quality is good and better than a lot of other stadiums. I feel safe here since there are a lot of exits and they are all labeled clearly. Overall, the bathrooms are clean and stay clean throughout performances and events. The audio at performances doesn’t seem to echo much and sound great in most areas.
  • Great venue for concerts, Bruins, or Celtics and whatever else. Not a bad seat in the house. That being said the food is pretty trash - I feel like they could showcase some Boston spots more. Luckily you are very close to the great food of the North End and also super conveniently located next to North Station.
  • This is a great venue. It’s easy to get to via the orange line. Getting a drink and something to eat is super easy, as there are lots of little stores available in each floor. One does not have to leave one’s floor to get the whole gamut of offerings. The bathrooms are kept super clean, as are the seats. We went to a game for the NBA finals and one of the kids lost her sweater. By the time we made it to the list and found, they were already tagging it!! So impressed by their great service. They also do a great job of emptying it out and one never feels like you are about to be trampled on. Love this place!
  • Was here for the My Chemical Romance day 1 concert. They managed to make a sold out event still feel like a small venue in all the right ways, while providing all the comforts of a major venue. Parking is a bit difficult, so take the T if you can. Highly recommended.
