Mohegan recently hosted the final performances of music icon Tony Orlando, marking the end of an era for the legendary artist. The last concert at Mohegan Sun Arena was particularly significant as it marked his 65th overall appearance at the entertainment destination across an impressive 23-year period. Orlando’s last shows graced the stages of Mohegan-owned properties, including Mohegan Sun, the flagship property in Connecticut, Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey and Fallsview Casino Resort in Canada, culminating in a series of memorable shows that celebrated his remarkable career. “The reason I picked Mohegan Sun Arena to close out my 64-year dream journey is because it feels like family,” said Orlando. “I’ve been performing here since 1998 when it was just the Wolf Den. The first day I was here is the first time I fell in love with Mohegan Sun. I want to thank everyone who has been so gracious to me every time I’ve been here. Because of Mohegan Sun, my career is ending beautifully.” “Tony Orlando is an American entertainment treasure, and for us to host his very last show, a true finale, is a tribute of respect to the men and women who run our venues and to the 100,000 fans he’s entertained at Mohegan Sun,” said Tom Cantone, President of Sports & Entertainment of Mohegan.
