The other major changes within the complex are to the bingo hall which is being gutted, refurbed, and turned into the 75,000 square foot Rainmaker Expo Hall. “As we look ahead to the next chapter of Foxwoods, and as we continue to get better every year, I am proud to celebrate this milestone alongside The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, Foxwoods team members, our beloved guests, and the local community.” “Not only is it our thirtieth anniversary, but it is our most significant year of evolution, innovation, and development for the property to date, and we’re just getting started.

“This year marks an incredible milestone for Foxwoods and the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe,” Guyet said.

Guyet, however, is focusing on the positives. Some folks are concerned about the environmental impact of filling in fifteen acres of the countryside with concrete and chlorinated water. Not everyone is thrilled with this development. In the announcement presser, Guyet added, “Today marks the beginning of a spectacular yearlong celebration, and we look forward to welcoming guests of all ages to experience the wonder of it all.” Along the way, Foxwoods CEO Jason Guyet says they aim to announce “new restaurants and new experiences every month.” Great Wolf Lodge at Mashantucket will be a huge new indoor water park resort covering 15 acres of land next to the current Foxwoods complex. It currently has a golf course, a go-kart track, six casinos, four hotels, two theatres, two bus stops, a 59-store shopping mall, and forty restaurants including one founded by Guy Fieri.Īnd now, of course, it’s adding a water park. Now Foxwoods is a full-blown integrated resort. When Foxwoods opened its theatre in 1993, its first act has Frank Sinatra doing it their way. The anniversary plans involve the expansion of the property, cash giveaways, and refurbishments to the bingo hall and entrance.įounded in 1986 as a bingo hall, Foxwoods became a casino in 1992.
