UNCASVILLE, CT (July 7, 2026) – Mohegan Sun is celebrating 30 years as one of the world’s premier entertainment destinations in the world with an unforgettable 30th Birthday Celebration, featuring two weekends of legendary entertainment and special events this October.

The lineup includes Alanis Morissette on Friday, October 2nd; Foo Fighters on Sunday, October 4th; John Mayer on Friday, October 9th; Lainey Wilson on Saturday, October 10th, and DJ Cassidy’s Pass The Mic Live! starring Busta Rhymes, Fat Joe, Ja Rule, Jadakiss, and Nelly on Sunday October 11th.
“Over the past three decades, Mohegan Sun has grown into one of the most successful and highest-grossing tribal gaming destinations in the country, continually evolving to deliver exceptional entertainment and guest experiences that have earned its place among the world’s leading integrated resorts.” said Jeff Hamilton, President & GM of Mohegan Sun. “Many more events and promotions will be announced this summer for this massive milestone, though to have such iconic performers like Alanis Morissette, Foo Fighters, Lainey Wilson, John Mayer and more to help us celebrate is more than an honor.”
