About Mohegan Sun Resort
Opened in 1996 by the Mohegan Tribe on sovereign land in Uncasville, Connecticut, Mohegan Sun has grown into one of the largest integrated casino resorts in the world. The property is owned and operated by the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, a wholly tribal-controlled enterprise that has poured profits back into the Mohegan Tribe community, scholarships, and language preservation programs.
The resort comprises two distinct casino areas — the Native-themed Casino of the Earth and the dramatic Casino of the Sky — connected by a glass-domed Shops at Mohegan Sun retail concourse. Above sit three hotel towers, the largest being the 34-story Sky Tower with 1,200 rooms.
