## Event-Day Parking at the DCU Center

The DCU Center does not operate a parking facility. The City of Worcester provides accessible parking on the Foster Street side of the arena, making that approach the key venue-specific option for drivers with accessible-parking needs (dcucenter.com).

Event parking is also available at public facilities serving the area, including Mercantile Center Garage, which advertises event parking for DCU Center visitors (mercantilecentergarage.com).

## Nearby Parksy Parking for DCU Events

The closest listed Parksy option is a parking lot in Worcester, 71 yd from the venue. Its listing is not priced for this page, so it is best treated as a close-reservation option rather than compared with the priced spaces below.

A commercial garage in Worcester is 0.3 mi away and costs $216 a month. After a concert or game, that distance gives drivers a short walk back to the car while avoiding a search immediately beside the arena. A monthly space 2.3 mi away costs $63 a month, while a 24/7 parking lot 3.9 mi away costs $7 a day. Those farther choices suit drivers prioritizing a lower listed rate over the quickest post-event exit.

## Mercantile Center Garage and Other Worcester Alternatives

Mercantile Center Garage is a named public facility near the arena and advertises event parking for DCU Center visitors (mercantilecentergarage.com). Its operator presents the garage as public parking for businesses, residents, guests and events, making it a practical alternative to searching for curb space around Foster Street.

Park Worcester lists a garage rate of $4 for 0-1 hour, $1 for each additional hour, $17 for 6+ hours, and $22 for up to 24 hours. The same listing gives a $3 evening rate for entry after 5 PM and exit by 3 AM (parkworcester.com). The City of Worcester also publishes special-event categories with a $15 flat rate for premium off-street parking near the park and a $10 flat rate for intermediate parking within a relatively short walk (worcesterma.gov).

## Street Restrictions Around the DCU Center

Foster Street is the important event-day street because the venue identifies its Foster Street side for accessible parking (dcucenter.com). Drivers heading to that side should follow the arena’s official parking and directions information and use only the spaces designated for accessible parking.

The City of Worcester publishes separate special-event parking guidance, including premium off-street parking near the park and intermediate parking within a relatively short walk (worcesterma.gov). Those event categories indicate that parking arrangements can be organized differently during major events, so a driver arriving for a busy show should use signed legal parking rather than stopping in an access lane or relying on a normal curb space.

## Union Station and Walking to the Venue

Union Station is the nearest station to the venue, 0.4 mi away with an 8 min walk. The station-to-venue route provides a straightforward alternative for visitors who would rather avoid event traffic and garage queues.

The DCU Center is at 50 Foster Street, and the venue sits 322 yd from Worcester centre. From Union Station, the 8 min walk is short enough for many event visitors to leave the car outside the immediate arena area and complete the final approach on foot.
