Mohegan Sun Resort Casino Uncasville, CT


At Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, construc- tion is underway for The Mohegan Sun Expo Center with a target opening in sum- mer 2018. The expansion will span over 240,000 gross square-feet and will be located in close proximity to property’s newest hotel, Earth Tower. The New York based architect firm KPF (Kohn Pedersen Fox) and the construction team A/Z Corp are partners on the project.


The exposition and convention center is expected to attract more corporate and association trade shows, in addition to exhibitions. It gives Mohegan Sun a great opportunity to also expand current con- sumer geared shows and bring about tech industry shows, golf shows, musical extrav- aganzas, home shows, motor sports and hunting and fishing shows.


Mohegan Tribal Chairman, Kevin Brown, touched on exciting partnerships to come and further positive impacts that the expo center soon will have for southeastern Connecticut. “This new conference center will help solidify Mohegan Sun as not just the premier conventions destination, but the premier resort in the Northeast region. It will enable us to host some of the largest trade shows in the nation.”


Key details and figures for the addition include: a 21,412 net square-foot ballroom, divisible into two and featuring over 3,000 net square feet of pre-function space; The Exposition Center itself, at 131,000 net square feet; free parking; six loading docks from an open parking field and additional drive in access from 2 grade level drive-in doors; 18 meeting rooms in total; pre-func- tion space with its own outdoor terrace; 3,600 net square feet of outdoor space, on- site kitchen; a mobile box office, up-to-the- minute technology; free Wi-Fi, and con- tiguous exhibit space. The new expo cen- ter will be a column-free structure within a naturally-lit space.


Once completed in the summer of 2018, Mohegan Sun will be home to the largest meetings and convention spaces between Boston, MA and New York City.
