Madison Square Garden

• Driving & Parking
  Driving to MSG is not recommended. If you must, the arena is accessible from the Lincoln Tunnel from New Jersey, the Midtown Tunnel from Queens, and FDR Drive. Parking garages in the immediate area run more expensive on event night.
• Public Transit
  • Rail Lines
    Penn Station sits directly beneath MSG, making it the most transit-accessible arena in North America. The 1/2/3, A/C/E subway lines stop at Penn Station, and NJ Transit, Amtrak, and the Long Island Rail Road all terminate here. The B/D/F/M/N/Q/R/W lines are available at nearby Herald Square (34th Street). Taking the subway is the only sensible way to get to a game.
  • Bus Lines
    M5, M7, M11, M20, M34-SBS, M34A-SBS, M55, and Q32 buses all reliably drop riders off right near Madison Square Garden.
• Rideshare
  Pickup/drop-off on 33rd Street and 8th Avenue. Expect heavy surge pricing on game nights. Walking a few blocks in any direction for pickup after the game will save you time and money.

Midtown Manhattan offers an overwhelming number of pregame options. The blocks surrounding MSG feature classic New York bars and restaurants, and world-class dining is a short cab ride away in every direction.

Pregame Bars & Restaurants

  A massive multi-level bar on West 33rd Street, directly across from MSG. Multiple bars across several floors, big screens everywhere, and a game-night atmosphere that starts hours before puck drop. This is the default pregame destination for Rangers fans.
