If driving, lots of free parking can be found in the New Street parking lot. New Street can be accessed from behind the Fresh Pond Mall (Whole Foods/Apple Cinemas), or from Concord Ave (off the smaller rotary by the Sozio appliance store). There are also parking lots off of Sherman St and Field St, but these require a bit more walking through the park to get to the Soccer Nights fields (see "Other Routes" below).
If you are biking, there are several posts for you to secure your bike at the soccer fields.
