Bag storage at the verified venues

Fenway Park: The Red Sox do not store prohibited items, and anything left at the screening area is treated as surrendered and discarded. Fans who arrive with a bag that is not permitted can store it for a fee with a third-party locker company. The locker truck is on top of the Lansdowne Garage, across from Gate E.

TD Garden: Oversized bags, over 6 by 4 by 1.5 inches, can be stored at the Event Bag Check next to the box office on Level 1, east side of North Station. It costs 15 dollars, opens two hours before an event and stays open until an hour after it, and hours may vary.

Gillette Stadium: Mobile lockers are available for guests with bags that exceed the bag policy sizes. Ask a stadium attendant for the exact locations when you arrive.

Boston College Alumni Stadium: Guests with unapproved bags and no vehicle can use a complimentary bag check at Fish Field House next to the Beacon Street Garage.

Xfinity Center: The page describes no bag storage.
