TD Garden, Music venue in Boston, United States
TD Garden is a multipurpose arena with over 18,000 seats in Boston, characterized by multiple tiers and modern construction. The stands are arranged so that concertgoers have a clear view of the stage from every angle.
The arena opened in September 1995 to replace the old Boston Garden, which had served as a venue for decades. The architectural firm Ellerbe Becket designed the building with a focus on improved infrastructure and contemporary facilities.
Residents treat the building as a fixed gathering point for sports games and major concerts, turning it into a social hub for the city. On game days, fans fill the surrounding bars and restaurants that bring life to the neighborhood around North Station.
Visitors reach the arena directly through North Station, where commuter trains and subway lines arrive. Drivers can use a parking garage at North Station, which provides additional spaces on event days.
The arena shifts between concerts and sports events throughout the season, with the Boston Celtics and Boston Bruins playing their home games here. Within a few hours, the ice surface is removed or relocated so the parquet floor for basketball games or the stage for music performances can be installed.
