"I got a color TV so I can see the Knicks play basketball" (Sugarhill Gang) The Mohegan Sun Arena is a 10,000-seat multi-use entertainment venue inside the Mohegan Sun Casino. Since its 2001 opening, it has hosted such diverse events as AKC dog shows, WWE/MMA/UFC fights, bare knuckle boxing, Strongman competitions, rodeos, arena football, lacrosse, concerts of every musical genre from classical to heavy metal, and basketball. Plenty of basketball. The Boston Celtics have played preseason games there, but the main basketball attraction since 2003 has been the Connecticut Sun of the Women's National Basketball Association. The Mohegan Sun Arena has hosted around 465 Connecticut Sun regular season and post-season home games. We were two of the 8,910 in attendance at a late season game between the Connecticut Sun and Phoenix Mercury yesterday afternoon, and it was quite a high energy entertainment experience. The player introductions included crowd pumping AC DC and Jimi Hendrix tunes. Over the course of the afternoon, we saw a successful marriage proposal on the Jumbotron scoreboard, songs featuring a karaoke cam and a Simba cam (hold up your child), a few T-Shirt tosses, plenty of cheerleader and dance team routines, plenty of music during lulls in the action (when's the last time you heard "Gangnam Style"?), and a halftime show by Grammy nominated rapper Skee-Lo. The Sun led most of the first quarter, but the rest of the game was very close with many lead changes, until Connecticut finally won by three points on a late rally. What a fun experience.
We have been to this venue a few times now and have always had a good experience. There is really not a bad seat in the house. The most irritating and also infuriating thing is that some high rollers get comped with the best seats, and they are not at all into nor interested in the show and leave early. Some lines getting in and out of venue but 5 to 10 min wait at most. Great place to see a show.
Here to watch my daughters East Catholic CIAC championship Game. There's a few vendors here like me he CT Army National Guard and selling of CIAC Championship sports wear. I bought a sweatshirt and sweatpants w the logo as this is a big accomplishment for East Catholic Girls Basketball and o go this far and hoping for the WIN
Came for a concert on Valentines, the casino was already busy because of the holiday. We parked at the Winter Garden garage/parking lot and found that was the easiest entry for us to get to the arena. This was my first time at a concert in this arena. I was very impressed by how intimate it was and how it seemed every seat was a good seat. It was very shocking that a regular sized beverage, not even a 16 oz, was a whopping $12, which deterred us from having more than one drink. Bathrooms were clean and plentiful.
One of the better venues I have ever been to. Just wish it wasn't so far away. We came from Central Jersey and it took us 4 hours due to some mad Friday weekend traffic. We came to see Duran Duran, who is touring to promote their newest album...Danse Macabre. This arena is half the size of MSG and holds 10K. No matter which seat(s) you choose, you will have killer view. The sound came through beautifully. Super friendly staff. Bags will be searched and everyone has to hold their phones over their heads as they walk through the scanning machines. Seats are hard but I had no problem with it. It was easy to enter and exit as well. Don't forget to get your merch before or after the show. It's a wonderful arena inside a casino where my SIL is a blackjack dealer. The upper level of the casino is mostly celebrity-owned restaurants. Wanted to surprise my nephew, who is a manager at Starbucks, but he already left his shift. Told one of the baristas to let him know all his uncles and aunties came by. Lol. Ummm, you guys need to perfect that hot chocolate. I also happened to meet one of the waiters in the elevator from the newest restaurants here at Mohegan Sun, The Shed! I highly recommend. Pros: - FREE PARKING (shocking, I know) - Smoking on the casino floor is banned HAPPY 66th SIMON LEBON!!! #ForeverDuranies
Came to see Duran Duran, and the venue is super intimate, holding around 10,000. We usually go to see concerts at MSG, but this was a pleasant surprise! Concession prices are cheaper here, and the bathrooms are super clean! We were in section 19, and the view was superb! Gonna have to see more concerts here, in the future!
Do NOT sleep on this venue! Been to a lot of venues indoor and out, this unique one is top 10 without a doubt. For starters, the size. Seating capacity is around 10,000. Not a bad seat in the house. You can see some heavy hitters here and have a stellar experience. Second, would def be parking. It's free! It's on site! You may have to trek a bit through the maze-like casino, but who cares! The sound techs and staff are all super experienced and great at what they do. I'll see many, many more shows here. They wouldn't be who they are if they weren't who they were.
02/26/2023 - Here to see one of my favorite soft rock bands of the 80's and 90's Air Supply. The arena seats 10K people. The seats are comfortable. They offer food and beverages for sale and most importantly the acoustics are pretty good. Make sure to go early to your event since everyone needs to go through metal detectors, pocketbooks and bags are throughly searched and inspected. Leave your pepper spray, knives and guns at home :)
Just saw Doobie Brothers and they were BAD !! October 5 th . Paid $250 for my seat in section 5. The kid next to me paid $103. The music was VERY LOUD so they could drown out Michael McDonald's voice . He only played 3 of his songs . He was kind of in his own world wanting no attention. I think he needed the cash and the group needs his name to attract customers. The arena was clean with good tempature and cushioned seats . I must admit I never knew Doobie Brothers were hard rock .
Been to the mohegan sun arena plenty of times before to see The Jonas Brothers, Nick Jonas solo (Twice!), and even Jeff Dunham! Been here recently on Thursday August 17th 2023 with my mom to see The Jonas Brothers on their 5 Albums 1 Night tour. Seats are comfortable, although we all stand and dance at some point. They offer food and beverages in the arena. We purchased a water, that was poured into a cup with a lid on it. it was $5.00 for a water. They also had a merch stand both inside and outside of the arena. They did have more merch inside the arena, but if you want simple, outside is best, where i brought my new shirt! Both cashiers at the merch stand and at the beverage stand were very nice and friendly. My mom and i enjoyed another great show by the Jonas Brothers! Do come here early, as they body scan everyone, and check bags. Although they were great at communicating about bringing a see-through bag, which makes the process easier i'm sure. Restrooms also were super clean. Will be back next time to see a concert again soon!
It was my first time here last night. I was excited to check out the arena at Mohegan sun. Its a pretty good size, I was impressed. The sound sounded great. I saw a comedian so there was no band or music or anything. The arena seems like even if you sit on the top area its still a good view. They have great two screens too on each side. The staff here, well there are definitely alot of security and staff. They are all helpful and mostly nice. Beers are reasonable priced but just know that they have to pour beers into cups and they are not allowed to put covers on it. After the show was over, it took long for us to file out of the arena. I was on the floor so there was a massive crowd. Once outside of the arena area to get upstairs I took the stairs because for whatever reason they blocked off the escalator so people were just not knowing what to do and why they were not allowing people to use it. Other than this it was a good experience. Would like to try and see an actual concert here one day.

The arena isn't ginormous so there's really no bad seat. I've been to many concerts here and have enjoyed it. Seats are easy to find with friendly staff to help you. The ambiance of the venue is great and climate controlled. Sound isn't bad as long as the sound person does their job well. There's Jumbotrons for anyone that can't see the performers but sometimes the video person messes up the tv stuff. During basketball season the floor is the court and fun to watch. read more
What a wonderful concert venue! We were there Saturday night for Sarah Brightman Christmas Symphony. This show had a full choir and full orchestra with amazing lighting, and I mention this as this is a sports arena! The arena was well prepared and I felt I was in an theatre for most of the show. The ushers were caring and earthy, a credit to the big picture of getting folks in and out safely. Strongly recommended and looking forward to returning for many shows to come! read more

Here I am! The one that you love~~~ omg so good to be back in this arena after 15 months of Covid. We went to see Air Supply. First Moheghan sun concert after the pandemic. We got 2nd row center! That's why my pics are awesome!! Being so close to stage,Amazing experience. Good to see young people enjoying this 80's band. Packed sold out concert. 10,000 seat arena. No one was wearing masks, everyone was singing. It was truly like old times. Can't wait to come back read more
One of the nicest arenas that I have ever been at! The seats were comfortable with backs. The pizza was the best that we have ever had at an arena. There were plenty of food and drink choices. All of the facilities were well-kept and new. No wonder the Mohegan Sun Arena has won multiple awards for Best Arena! Everything was super positive about this venue. The only thing I might suggest would be better signage coming into the facility and in the parking garage. An added bonus was all of the wonderful restaurants and shops that were located in the Mohegan Sun complex outside of the casino. You can easily spend a day there, and having all those things to do was great for us, because we arrived a few hours before the game started. We will definitely be back. Maybe for a concert? There is a great concert line-up planned for this summer! read more

There is food and drinks in the arena. There are also restrooms. The staff were very helpful in getting us to the seats. The arena is small enough that you can sit in sections 17-23 and have a good view of the stage. And don't need to look at the monitors. read more

First time seeing a show here. I saw Dancing with the Stars Live. It was a great show. The seats were comfortable but very close to one another. My only complaints: the arena was extremely crowded with long lines. Perhaps the staff/security can accommodate less people at a given time. It was very difficult walking around with so many people. Second: the music was EXTREMELY loud. Deafeningly loud. It was quite dangerous. Third: we were seated stage left, so the bright white lights on stage right were in our eyes for some parts of the dances making it impossible to see the dancers. Last: the show started about 15 minutes late, so it ended later than it was supposed to. read more
This was my first time at this Arena, and it was such an awesome experience! Every seat is great and the staff is very nice and helpful. We went to see Brad Paisley and it was one of the best venues I have been to. I've seen Brad many times at Jones Beach, and he is always great, but you can't get that close up personal feel at that venue like you do here at Mohegan. The people standing in the pit area really had a great time, and I would have been right up there with them, except my mom came with me so we needed seats :-) We ended up with excellent seats and since this concert was rescheduled due to covid, there were some empty seats up closer to move to. The sound system was also amazing! Some places are either too loud and muffled, or just not balanced correctly. That wasn't the case here, and the music was just perfect! They also allow you to bring drinks and food to your seats, so that made everything even better! It was a great night! The only thing that I wish was different is that Brad played longer...it all went so fast, but I guess that's what always happens when you're having a great time!! If you want a great place for dinner, go to Michael Jordan's Steak house...excellent!! and Tom's for breakfast...especially if you're really hungry...the biggest breakfast I ever had, and so delicious! read more

I haven't been here in forever. I think the last time I was here was back in 2011. The place is pretty much the same. Now it's past the COVID lockdown while COVID percentage is still high. You would think that they would still have you somewhat distance yourself in the seating area. The seats were so small that there were a few people I seen that fit in a chair and a half. I really felt sorry for those that sat next to them because they were practically in each other's lap. Security was tight. So I did feel safe while enjoying the show I went to. Other than that. That was my only complaint about the place. It was clean when we went in. And the entertainment that we came to see was so good. I'm glad that they are having entertainment events back on the calendar. read more
Mohegan Sun Arena is the absolute best place to see a show! Legit any seat is perfect! I've seen Ed Sheeran, Game of Thrones Orchestra, and Death Cab for Cutie here and every time was a great experience! I never had to wait too long for a drink here as well. What I also appreciate is the friendly staff. I've been to many different concert venues and most of the time the workers are rude or rush you in/out but at Mohegan I've never encountered a rude staff member- only friendly/ welcoming ones! I highly recommend seeing a show here! So worth it! read more

I go to the Mohegan Sun pretty much just for shows. The arena is great. Good size, good acoustic and I have never had a bad seat for viewing, though tonight's seating was a little Rocky. We felt every movement from people in our section. Definitely got a tad motion sick, but was able to fully enjoy, Del Amitri, Five for Fighting and BARENAKED LADIES!!! Great show!! read more
I enjoy going to Mohegan . I'm usually there for a concert I'm not much on gambling. Love the design of the venue. There not a bad seat in the arena . Recently went to a Toby Keith concert on the 4th of a July ! Excellent Never disappoints. Valet parking is the best way to go. I prefer to let someone else figure out the parking issue. The place itself is so well designed so I can figure out where I'm going. ( no sense of direction)' There's plenty of restaurants and snack places and of course SHOPPING ! My daughter likes the roulette table. BTW she's not bad at it! She came out ahead! I went to Dave's candy store for a little sugar for the drive home! Exceptional choice I must say! Oh I shouldn't forget the Krispy Kreme donuts right at the entrance for breakfast in the morning! All around a great experience. read more

I had a good experience at the Mohegan Sun Arena. I went to see Louis Tomlinson. The concert was a great vibe and I had so much fun. We were let in quickly into the arena and we were guided to our seats. I didn't get any food, but I believe there were options to pick from. Overall, I would recommend coming here if it's close to you and you have someone you want to come see. read more

Went to the Miranda Lambert/Pistol Annies and Elle King concert September 14, 2019. Honestly - this is probably one of my favorite venues for a concert. Coming from the bay area, we have gi-normous venues that I kind of hate, and then much smaller venues where you tend to need to stand all night (Fillmore, anyone?). I couldn't stand all night in my 20's, let alone now LOL. So the size of this place seems just right to this Goldilocks. Parking was super easy and FREE. What? Riverview garage is the closest, shortest walk to the doors toward the arena. And getting out was like...just drive. Seriously, not used to this in the bay. I can't think of one bad thing to say about this venue - truly. Even trying to figure out how to come back and see the holiday Pentatonix concert that I just realized is happening here. Seems excessive to come from Oakland, but hey... read more
This time I went to see Brantley Gilbert and Mitchell Tenpenny it was a great show. The music was fantastic.the people were great. The fans were respectful. The staff were all helpful and professional. It was a fun, enjoyable, entertaining time. I definitely recommend seeing shows here. The best thing is there really are no bad seats. I will be back for more shows. read more

Is there an escalator or stairs for the mohegan sun basketball arena?
They definitely have stairs (I know because I used them). I don't remember seeing an escalator, but I did see people in wheelchairs in the upper seating area, which leads me to believe that they have an elevator. But, don't quote me on that, I've… Read more
