Boston World Cup 2026 — Airport to Gillette Stadium

Gillette Stadium is in Foxborough, about 30 miles southwest of Boston — well outside the city, on a site served by a single access road. A pre-booked ride or the dedicated match train beats the Route 1 crush.

7 matches at Gillette Stadium. Dates and kickoff times can change — confirm with FIFA before you travel.

Rideshare pickup

Rideshare drop-off and pickup is Lot 16, next to the Bass Pro Shops at Patriot Place beside the stadium — the only official TNC staging area. Post-match waits of 45–60 minutes and 3–5× surge are typical, so book ahead and aim for ~30 minutes after the final whistle.

Public transit

MBTA’s dedicated “Boston Stadium Train” runs express from South Station to Foxboro Station (a <10-minute walk to the gates) in ~60 minutes; $80 round-trip on the mTicket app, match ticket required. From Logan, take the free Silver Line SL1 to South Station first.

Traffic to expect

Route 1 is the ONLY road to the stadium for cars, and I-95 backs up at Exit 9 starting 3+ hours before a World Cup kickoff. FIFA parking is ~$175 (pre-purchase only) and still subject to the Route 1 bottleneck — MassDOT’s “Kick the Drive” campaign urges fans not to drive.

Local match-day tips for Boston

  • The train is the answer — Foxboro Station is right at the stadium. Buy the $80 round-trip “Boston Stadium Train” ticket on the mTicket app as soon as your match ticket is confirmed; it sells out.
  • From Logan Airport, the Silver Line SL1 to South Station is free, then the stadium train — far cheaper than a $150–300 surge ride to Foxborough.
  • Five of Boston’s seven matches are weekday afternoon/evening kicks that stack onto Boston rush hour — leave big buffers if you drive.
  • Patriot Place (the mall attached to the stadium) is the pre-match hub — arrive early and wait there rather than sitting on Route 1.

Boston World Cup transport — FAQs

Is there a train from Boston to Gillette Stadium?

Yes — MBTA runs express “Boston Stadium Trains” from South Station to Foxboro Station next to the stadium. They’re $80 round-trip on the mTicket app and require a valid match ticket.

How far is Boston Logan (BOS) from Gillette Stadium?

About 30 miles (~37 min) by car in light traffic, but Route 1 — the only stadium access road — clogs on match days. The reliable route is the free Silver Line SL1 to South Station, then the stadium train.

How early should I leave for a match at Gillette?

If taking the train, board at least 90 minutes before kickoff. If driving, leave 3–4 hours early for I-95/Route 1 congestion and the $175 parking queue.
