The Sun Patio also hosts “Moonlit Movies” on Friday, October 18th and Seltzer Social on Friday, October 25th!
UNCASVILLE, CT (October 1, 2024) – This past Saturday evening, on
September 28th, Mohegan Sun’s revamped outdoor Sun Patio [1] venue
played host to an all-ages event featuring a popular Taylor Swift
tribute band [2]. A large crowd of fans enjoyed the special evening of
their favorite hit songs, fun activities, and food trucks by way of
Philly’s, Supreme Hot Dogs, and NoRA Cupcake Company.
“We made some major improvements to the outdoor space known as Sun
Patio ahead of the summer, and with that, Mohegan Sun successfully hosted
a variety of events, including 30+ free concerts,” -said Jeff
Hamilton, President & GM of Mohegan Sun. “This Taylor Swift
celebration was a tremendous showcase of what we envisioned for this
unique outdoor amenity and it became the largest ticketed event yet
hosted on the new Sun Patio, with more than 2,150 enjoying the special
event!”
Officially billed as “Are you Ready For iT? A Musical Tribute,” a
talented tribute band based in Connecticut hit the stage just after
6:00 pm. Using costumes, choreography, and signature elements from
Taylor’s performances, the band captured the thrill of one of the most
iconic acts in music today. In addition to a night filled with
chart-topping renditions, the event featured group seating around fire
pits, delicious bites, a photo booth, and a friendship bracelet station.
