🚆 Getting to Fenway Park
Take the T: the MBTA Green Line (B, C or D branch) to Kenmore station is the easiest way to Fenway Park, and the Red Sox strongly encourage public transportation.
The Green Line B, C and D branches stop at Kenmore Station, about a 5-minute walk from the park — any Green Line train except the E branch gets you there. The Framingham/Worcester commuter rail line also serves Lansdowne Station, a short walk from the park. Several MBTA bus routes stop near Brookline Avenue and Jersey Street, right by the park.
Parking around Fenway is extremely limited, with pre-paid parking available in private lots and garages around the Fenway-Kenmore neighborhood. Partner garages further away in Back Bay, including the Prudential Center Garage and the 100 Clarendon Street Garage, are documented options on weekends and evenings. Because spaces fill fast and streets back up before games, the club recommends transit instead of driving.
Designated rideshare and taxi pick-up and drop-off is located outside the facility, primarily along Lansdowne Street and Brookline Avenue.
🛏️ Where to stay near Fenway Park
Most visiting fans base themselves in Fenway-Kenmore itself or in Back Bay, both walkable to the park, so the game fits into a walkable, transit-connected stay.
- Fenway-Kenmore — The ballpark's own neighborhood, with Lansdowne Street behind the left-field wall lined with bars that fill up hours before first pitch. Staying here means a short walk to the gates and to the Kenmore and Fenway Green Line stops.
- Back Bay — A 15- to 20-minute walk from the park across the Back Bay Fens, with Boylston and Newbury streets for food and shopping. It is also an easy Green Line ride to Kenmore, making it a practical base for a wider Boston stay.
🎟️ Game-day tips for Fenway Park
Arrive early and check your exact seat view before you buy — Fenway's historic grandstand has support poles that obstruct some views.
- See the Green Monster up close — The 37-foot left-field wall is Fenway's most iconic structure, with a hand-operated scoreboard still updated from inside the wall. Walk down to see it up close, or look for the coveted seats on top of the Monster.
- Find the lone red seat — In the right-field bleachers, Section 42, Row 37, Seat 21 is painted red in a sea of green seats. It marks where Ted Williams' 502-foot home run landed in 1946, the longest ever hit at Fenway.
- Watch for obstructed views — Steel support poles block sightlines in certain grandstand sections, and the Red Sox label obstructed-view seats as such. Preview the view from your section before buying, and note that loge box, right-field box and bleacher seats are documented as having no obstructions.
Bags: Bags must be single-compartment and no larger than 12x12x6 inches, with exceptions for diaper bags and bags containing essential medical equipment, and all bags are subject to search. Official policy.
