Facility Overview
Lot 20 at Gillette Stadium is a premier open-air surface parking facility located in the heart of the Patriot Place sports and entertainment complex in Foxborough, Massachusetts. As a surface-level lot, it provides a high degree of accessibility for all vehicle types. There are no vertical clearance restrictions, making it an excellent choice for full-size SUVs, pickup trucks, and vehicles with roof racks that would otherwise struggle in confined parking garages.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
This lot is strategically positioned to serve the primary needs of visitors to the Gillette Stadium campus. Key attractions include:
- Gillette Stadium: The home of the New England Patriots and the New England Revolution is within a short, convenient walk.
- Patriot Place: An extensive outdoor shopping, dining, and entertainment hub located adjacent to the stadium.
- The Hall at Patriot Place: The official team museum, located just minutes away by foot.
- Renaissance Boston Patriot Place Hotel: Located within the complex, making this an ideal spot for guests staying overnight during events.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Access is primarily gained via the main routes leading into the stadium complex off Route 1 (US-1). During peak event days, traffic is strictly managed by local law enforcement and stadium traffic control personnel. Drivers are encouraged to follow official signage rather than GPS alone, as traffic patterns often shift to one-way flow for post-event egress. For public transit users, the MBTA Commuter Rail provides game-day service to the Foxborough station, located on the stadium grounds, which connects to the Franklin Line.

- Navigation: Input the specific event-day entrance gate provided on your parking pass into your GPS to ensure you are directed to the correct lot segment.
- Exit Strategy: Post-event traffic is heavy; prepare for delays when leaving and follow the instructions of traffic officers, who may override standard GPS routing to maximize flow.
