If applicable, any subsequent special event train service to Gillette Stadium will be announced and updated at www.mbta.com/destinations/gillette-stadium once confirmed.  

Boston special event trains will depart from South Station with stops at Back Bay and Dedham Corporate Center before arriving at Foxboro Station. Providence special event trains will depart from Providence Station and make stops at Attleboro and Mansfield before arriving at Foxboro Station. The complete schedule for each show will be announced closer to the show dates at www.mbta.com/destinations/gillette-stadium, but each special event train is projected to arrive in Foxborough approximately one hour before each concert starts and will depart Foxboro Station 30 minutes after each concert ends.  
 
Roundtrip tickets are $20 and can be purchased beginning two weeks before each show on the mTicket app or at ticket offices at South Station, North Station and Back Bay Station. For concerts with multiple Gillette Stadium dates, tickets will go on sale two weeks before the first show date (i.e. all special event train tickets for Taylor Swift will go on sale two weeks before May 19).  
 
Tickets for each special event train will be sold separately and need to be purchased for the correct corresponding date, show and destination (Boston or Providence).
 
Due to anticipated high demand, no refunds or exchanges will be available. Tickets must be purchased prior to boarding the event train. Please note: These are special event trains and ticket sales will be stopped once the maximum capacity is reached. Regular Commuter Rail tickets and passes are not valid for special event trains. Riders are also reminded that any prohibited items that do not comply with the stadium’s Clear Bag Policy will not be permitted on the train and no personal items may be left on the train during the concert.
