What To Know About The DCU Center

The ASC Return to Atlantis Worcester Showdown visits the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts, in 2024, which puts competitors and their guests less than 50 miles from Boston.

The storied history of the DCU Center began in 1982 with a memorable performance by Frank Sinatra, and it has been a destination for performers and events since. Among the regulars are Disney on Ice, monster trucks, the Harlem Globetrotters, NCAA hockey and basketball, high school sports, and more.

The property features more than 100,000 square feet of exhibit space, 11 meeting rooms, a ballroom, in-house catering, and the flexibility to host a variety of events. A highlight of the convention center is a panoramic view of downtown Worcester. 

Since 2006, the DCU Center has been home to professional hockey. First were the Worcester Sharks of the American Hockey League (2006-2015) and then the ECHL’s Worcester Railers Hockey Club (founded in 2016).

During the weekend the ASC Return to Atlantis Worcester is going on, the area also will host a Railers vs. Maine Mariners game (Feb. 10), followed by the Harlem Globetrotters (Feb. 11).

Both of those events will take place in the DCU Center Arena, while the cheer teams take over the DCU Center Convention Center.
