I went to the museum when it was located in Cambridge Side Galleria and my family had a very good time seeing all the exhibits and unlimited time.
Unfortunately this museum was very disappointing.
At TD Garden we were told by our guide we had 45 minutes to go through the various areas. Unfortunately we watched the Bruins practicing for 10 minutes. We then saw the life size statues of Orr, Bird, Williams & Yaz. After that the were rushed along corridors with various sporting photos on each side but were unable to look at most of them because we were hurried along.
The new Bruins exhibit was very nice, although they upped the tick price $10. At least here you could take your time and look over everything you wanted to see.
I would not recommend to anyone to spend their time and money to come to see this.

I joined the tour with Henry this morning. Henry has too much to say and is a wonderful sports tour guide. It was on my last day of a business trip in Boston. I am a basketball fan but do not remarkably follow the Celtics. But even so, this tour has provided me with a lot of new information about the sports history of Boston. I initially thought it was limited to basketball, hockey, or Celtics and Bruins. But it also includes the history of the Celtics franchise, the Old Garden, the Red Sox’s, and the Patriots’ history and glorious moments. And they may also collect cool stuff like the first-ever basketball shot clock and the old uniforms of the baseball teams. The experience has truly blown me away; I thought every sports fan should go because Boston almost has every first American professional sports team, just like Beantown’s historical role in US politics.

A must-visit for fans of Boston sports teams. It was really cool to get access to see TD Garden when it was so empty and to see the various levels. The exhibits are really cool too. Some highlights include bricks from the original Boston Garden, as well as seats, a section of the original parquet floor, and the Bruins old penalty box.

Well if you are in Boston and like sports this is the most important place for me to visit with only 20$ for one hour. 9 floors of a beautiful place not only for Celtics and Bruins , but for a variety of sports and concerts. 18-19 seats
A lot of bars 🍻 the story of Celtics and Bruins Red Sox with full of photos and personal memorable items of great athletes of the past are waiting for you there.

Thank you to Erik and Alexa at the Bruins for planning such a wonderful tour! For a bunch of hockey fans, and a bunch of sports enthusiasts in general, Boston fans or not, we had an absolute blast learning about the 100 years of history for the Bruins, the TD Garden and the entire history of Boston Sports. Erik was such a great and knowledgeable tour guide- even while cracking jokes with us New Yorkers. We had an absolute blast and the building is beautiful. The staff was so professional and it was really cool to see all the wonderful memorabilia around their building!!

Overall, the Arena Tour was a great experience. You get a great insight into the the Celtics and the Bruins, their history and more.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable and was great for answering questions.

It would have been nice to access some of the home dressing rooms instead of the dressing rooms for the away teams.

My family and I loved the tour of TD Garden! It was a great experience and great to know that the admission money is given to charity. Highly recommend if you are a sports fan.

Certainly a must see and do. It was a great tour and our guide was wonderful. We learned a ton of great history about the boston sports teams and enjoyed a great visit to the court. I would definitely recommend to any boston sports fan.
