MASHANTUCKET, CT (September 21, 2020) – Foxwoods Resort Casino, the largest resort casino in North America, is pleased to announce that the property was voted number one Best Casino Outside of Las Vegas by USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards. Nominees for this highly coveted award are chosen by an elected panel of judges - including industry leaders in hospitality and tourism - who nominate their favorite non-Vegas casinos via 10Best.com. Then, an open voting period allows USA Today readers to select their favorite for a top ten position.
After closing due to the coronavirus pandemic earlier this year, Foxwoods reopened on June 1st with several new safety protocols and operating procedures in place to ensure the health and safety of both guests and team members. Since then, the resort has moved forward with a phased approach of reintroducing the unique and exhilarating activities guests have come to know and love, including the HighFlyer Zipline, Monza World Class Karting and fan-favorite restaurants like Cedars Steaks and Oysters, Caputo Trattoria, Sugar Factory and more.
“We’re thrilled to accept this recognition from USA Today, especially knowing how hard our team members have worked to safely reopen Foxwoods over the last several months,” said Jason Guyot, Interim CEO and SVP Resort Operations. “We pride ourselves on offering our guests the ultimate getaway filled with unforgettable experiences, and it is because of their loyalty and our team members’ dedication that we have remained a top resort casino destination - even throughout the difficult times this year has brought us. We could not have won this award without them!”
