In 2022, the day after Valentine’s Day, a big 6-foot cake in the shape of a tree was rolled into the about-to-open High Stakes Bingo Hall in the resort’s Rainmaker section for a special birthday celebrating 30 years to the day that Foxwoods opened. The cake’s tree shape denotes an insignia that Foxwoods owners, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, adopted since federal recognition was granted them in the 1980s. In 2017, the tribe celebrated its 25th Anniversary and recently persevered through the Covid pandemic. Finally, in 2012, the New York Times declared that Foxwoods “is fighting for its life” due to more competition and saturation of casinos in the northeast.įifteen years later, there is new hope on the Mashantucket Pequot reservation. But, revenue began to decrease year after year, starting in 2008 and the Great Recession. In 2007, before the zipline and all the other thrill rides, the world’s largest casino (at the time) had already begun to become family-friendly and add an indoor water park and resort. “Expansion” has been the Mashantucket Pequots’ middle name. These additions are the biggest since the Fox Tower partnership with MGM and the Tanger Mall. Foxwoods Celebrates Its 30th Anniversary this year and announced an expansion and more plans. On February 15, 2022, Foxwoods became 30 years old.
