Concessions stands will open in the big concourse at 11:35am following the event for food purchase. Students are welcome to bring bagged lunches in a clear zip lock bag and one sealed unopened water bottle per person. This is a one time exception made specifically for this event. If a student needs a lunch provided by the school, please let us know. Fenway Park is entirely cashless. For convenience and to improve speed of service, concession stands throughout the ballpark will only accept credit cards or touchless payment with smartphones. Fans with cash can visit the Kids Concourse near Gate B to load their cash onto a Mastercard debit card using a Cash-2-Card exchange kiosk. To avoid long lines, it is recommended that students planning to utilize the concession stands arrive with their own prepaid credit cards available for purchase from most local convenience stores, gas stations, and or supermarkets.
