Now: Get Train to Gillette Stadium Concert in Foxboro, Massachusetts
Concert season is almost underway, and if there's one thing that stresses all of us out more than anything else, it's traffic and the parking fees when going to see your favorite artist.
You can plan on a $60 parking fee for parking at the TD Garden, and $50 for pre-paid parking at Gillette Stadium. Ticket prices are off the charts, and to add to that frustration, there's the stress of crawling traffic in hopes that you get to the venue on time for some tailgating or pre-gaming (let alone in time for the show).
If you are feeling the jitters right now just thinking about it, there's a solution.
First of all, you can take the commuter rail to the Garden, but getting to Gillette has been a little trickier...until now.

The MBTA and Keolis have announced a special concert train for every show this season at Gillette Stadium. It's a round-trip ticket for only $20, but the catch is they don't go on sale until two weeks before each show at 11am, exclusively on the mTicket app.
The train tickets go on sale at 11am on Thursday, May 16, at mbta.com/destinations/gillette-stadium.
You cannot buy a regular commuter rail ticket for these special event trains.
Here are the shows you can take a concert train to:
• The Rolling Stones Hackney Diamonds Tour (May 30)
• Zach Bryan The Quittin Time Tour (June 26 & July 17)
• Metallica M72 World Tour (Aug. 2 & Aug. 4*)
• P!NK 2024 Summer Carnival Tour (Aug. 21)
• Kenny Chesney Sun Goes Down Tour (Aug. 23, Aug. 24* & Aug. 25*)
Trains tickets go on sale according to the concert dates, not the artist. So plan ahead. The round-trip trains run from Boston to Foxboro, with stops at Back Bay and Dedham, and from Providence to Foxboro with stops at Pawtucket, Attleboro, and Mansfield.
