In June of this year, we also announced a two-year $50 million renovation project for Sky Tower. This November, we are excited to have opened the all-new Earth Tower, which adds 400 more hotel rooms to Mohegan Sun’s property, each with luxurious amenities, a modern design and fantastic views of the river. Once the project was completed in the spring of 2002, it also included the addition of 1,200 hotel rooms, meeting space, the Northeast’s largest ballroom, a spa, indoor pool, a professionally managed business center and an outdoor sun terrace. At this stage, Mohegan Sun was the second largest casino in the world with over 300,000 square feet of gaming space. The project was executed in phases, first of which was finalized in 2001 with the unveiling the new 115,000 square foot Casino of the Sky, as well as a 130,000 square foot retail and restaurant promenade with 30 new retail shops and 12 dining options, a 10,000 square foot Arena, a 300-seat Cabaret Theater, and Kid Quest, a youth entertainment center. Four years after the grand opening, we announced “Project Sunburst,” an expansion project now recognized as one of the largest private developments on the East Coast. When we first opened, we were primarily a gaming and entertainment complex however, over the past twenty years, we developed our product into what we like to think of as a ‘resort destination,’ with one of the largest casinos in the United States.

Mohegan Sun opened its doors twenty years ago in October 1996 on the Mohegan Tribal Reservation, located on the bank of the Thames River in Uncasville, Connecticut. Tell me a little bit about the history and evolution of Mohegan Sun since it opened in 1996. Marking the 20 th anniversary of Mohegan Sun, I interviewed Ray Pineault, President and General Manager, to discuss the opening and evolution of the property, celebration plans over the next many months, top-tier suites, dining, the perfect getaway itinerary and much more.
