MASHANTUCKET, CT (March 15, 2021) – Foxwoods® Resort Casino is reporting slot revenue of $22.5 million for the month of February 2021. This results in an $8 million direct payment to the State of Connecticut in accordance with the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation’s long-standing slot revenue contribution agreement. Since 1993, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation has deposited over $4 billion of Foxwoods’ slot revenue directly into the state’s budget fund.

After celebrating the resort’s 29th anniversary in February, the celebrations continued as Foxwoods reopened several guest favorite gaming and entertainment options in early March -- including the highly anticipated return of poker. The largest poker room on the east coast is now open seven days a week with several new safety measures in place, including marked social distancing, mandatory face masks, Plexiglass barriers, digital signage and ample hand sanitizing stations.

Foxwoods also reopened the Rainmaker Casino, TopGolf Swing Suite and Live@Atrium Bar & Lounge - all of which are now open on weekends. Guests can enjoy safe and socially distanced gaming in Rainmaker, an interactive social experience and full-service craft bar at TopGolf, or a high-energy party bar at Live@Atrium with free live entertainment. Whatever your preference, Foxwoods truly has something for everyone!

Additionally, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation and Hartford HealthCare opened a mega vaccination site at Foxwoods on March 9 as part of an ongoing effort to help the local community fight the COVID-19 pandemic. To get vaccinated, people must be Connecticut residents and need to schedule an appointment in advance. Visit foxwoods.com/vaccine to learn more and to schedule an appointment.

Still to come this month, Foxwoods will host a Taste of Foxwoods Restaurant Week from March 15-21. Foodies can enjoy a range of prix fixe menus for lunch and dinner for only $20.21 each, including amazing specials from Cedars Steaks & Oysters, Golden Dragon, High Rollers Luxury Lanes, Guy Fieri’s Kitchen + Bar and more. For those looking for a night of laughter and fun, head over to Comedic Corner at Centrale on Saturdays for a lineup of socially-distanced shows with the northeast’s best comedians like Kevin Israel and John Moses.
