What makes Worcester unique? It is the places, the people and the Worcester experiences.
We all love that Worcester ranked #1 in Central Mass for Best Community, but GoLocal decided to explore those amazingly good and bad Worcester experiences.
Most Worcesterites remember the first time they drove through Kelly Square or ate at a Worcester diner.
Winter would not be complete without shoveling your driveway out of 18" of snow.
From stART on the Street to The Taste of Shrewsbury Street to concerts at the DCU center, here are twenty unique experiences of Worcester natives.
