Woo CardThis is a WOO event. Bring your Woo Card and earn points!

Directions/Parking:

Parking is available at the Commercial Street parking garage at the corner of Commercial and Foster streets (enter on Commercial). This is the closest garage to both the opening and closing locations. Parking is typically around $6 for 5 hours if there is no major downtown event. Parking is not validated, so carpool with your friends!

Street parking is not recommended because stopping to refill your meter will throw you off your game.

When walking out of the garage, head toward Worcester Common (away from the DCU Center) on Commercial Street.  Walk across the Common to Bancroft Commons (50 Franklin Street).  It's only a 5-minute walk.
