    I go to TD Garden for the Bruins! Everyone who works there is super nice, you get some free stuff. Any seat in the lower level is great! Food is a little expensive but I feel like that's expected.

    I've been here for concerts, circuses, Disney shows, wrestling and much more. Great venue! Very clean and I enjoy coming here for events. It's a local venue for me, which makes it convenient!

    Fantastic venue to see ice hockey and basketball in! If you have your event tickets on your phone, you can skip the main queues by taking the first left when you enter the building.

    Great view of the Bruins game, even from the balcony, but non-US citizens be warned - they only accept passports as ID and they ID literally everyone.

    Everyone will say to see a game or a concert at TD, but splurge one time and get center, low seats for something. It's way worth it to see a floor view of some hockey (or the Red Hot Chili Peppers).

    The Godfather of Soul, James Brown, performed here after Martin Luther King's assassination on April 5th 1968. Brown agreed to perform to a smaller audience & have the performance televised.

    Great place to be during the Bruins & Celtics seasons. Even if you don't have tickets, going to a local bar like The Fours is an awesome way to spend your evening.

    If you're parking at North Station, I'd probably recommend printing out your parking pass/receipt instead of relying on your cell phone, as my experience was extremely problematic.

    Built just 9 inches from the existing TD Garden. Original Garden built in 1928. 1986 Celtics went 40-1 here. Bruins rink was constructed before NHL stds and hence 9' shorter. More info in blog.<LINK> Read more

    If you like to drink a lot at the game and will need the bathroom, think about sitting not far from one so that you can go right to it as soon as halftime comes and that way you avoid the 15 min line

    You don't need a Premium Club ticket to go into the Premium Club entrance. The line is always shorter and you don't get frisked.
