In the “The Heart of The Commonwealth,” DCU Center serves as the central point between multiple New England cities: Boston, Springfield, Providence, Hartford and Manchester are all just an hour away. Accessible transportation to DCU Center includes Worcester Regional Airport, just a 20-minute drive, and historic Union Station, with regional bus, rail and Amtrak service just blocks from DCU Center and area hotels.

DCU Center’s 14,805-seat arena is the region’s premier venue for hosting everything from concerts to competitions to unforgettable company conferences.
