A variety of events including concerts, sporting events, family shows, conventions, trade-shows and meetings are hosted in this wonderful facility.
The DCU Center was built and opened to the public in 1982. This arena is owned by the city of Worcester. It was actually built to provide an arena in central Massachusetts similar to the Boston Garden, which was in nearby Boston at the time. The debut opening featured a concert by Frank Sinatra. The facility became successful in no time. There were continued booking of popular concerts and family shows.
Keeping in view of the popularity of the arena,It was expanded in 1987. 2500 new seats were added and the outside of the building was revamped.
Already known for its flexible, contemporary facility, the DCU Center opened a state-of-the-art convention center in 1997. Adding over 50,000 square feet of exhibit space, the complex combined both the new convention center and the original arena for a total of 100,310 square feet of exhibit space.. This addition enabled the center for holding the national conventions and shows.
In 2004, the building's naming rights were bought by Digital Federal Credit Union for $5 million.
Today, the complex features 100,310 square feet of exhibit space, plus 11 meeting rooms totalling 23,636 square feet of space, plus a 12,144 square-foot ballroom.
