Through their Mohegan Gaming and Entertainment venture, the Mohegan Tribe has expanded its gaming interests to international levels. In 2019, they won the contract to operate two casinos near Niagara Falls for the Ontario Province of Canada.

If completed and approved, Connecticut’s tribes will jointly operate a satellite casino proposed for East Windsor, not located on either’s tribal reservation.

The largest casino in Connecticut is Mohegan Sun. The second largest casino is Foxwoods Resort Casino.

The Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods casinos compete, always striving to be better than the other. This ongoing competition is to the advantage of slots players as well as resulting in these two tribal casinos having a world-wide reputation.

A proposed casino in East Windsor is a joint venture of the tribal owners and operators of Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods, called MMCT Venture. MGM has sought to block the casino project since 2015, essentially to protect its MGM Springfield casino in western Massachusetts as well as Connecticut’s MGM Bridgeport in southwest Connecticut.

If the proposed MGM Bridgeport also opens, perhaps as early as 2022, it will become the second-largest casino in Connecticut.
