Mohegan Sun is the Place for High-Tech Meetings and Luxurious Retreats
The Convention Center at Mohegan Sun has become a major player in the meetings, conventions and expositions industry with more than 100,000 square feet of flexible, high-tech meeting and function space.
The luxury hotel at Mohegan Sun offers 1,200 spacious and elegantly-appointed guest rooms, including over 170 suites, to ensure that groups of all sizes are well accommodated. In between meetings, guests can relax in the hotel’s dramatic lobby; 20,000 square-foot, full-service spa and fitness center; 10,000 square-foot solarium with indoor/outdoor swimming pool; outdoor sun terrace; and 24-hour restaurant. As aesthetically exciting as it is luxurious, the hotel’s design elements expand upon the Mohegan themes and traditions that echo throughout the multi-dimensional complex.
A Radiant Tower of Mohegan Hospitality
Like the rest of the Mohegan Sun complex, the exterior and interior of the 34-story hotel reflect Mohegan Tribal stories, traditions and designs as well as the Tribe’s affinity with nature. The gleaming, crystalline tower pays homage to the natural materials the Mohegans used to fashion arrowheads and the ceremonial objects that acknowledged good spirits, such as rock and smoky quartz. Its glass curtain-wall system gently reflects the landscape, while the building’s geometric shape and large windows provide panoramic views of the Thames River and surrounding New England countryside. The building’s faceted form and exterior glass reflect the daily sun as well as its shifting light when the seasons change.

Mohegan Sun’s Convention Center provides meeting facilities that are tailored to satisfy the highest industry standards in terms of scope, staffing and seating.
All meeting room dimensions are PCMA-certified, while seating ratios are in accordance with the Convention Industry Council’s (CIC) criteria. The highest possible staff-to-attendee ratios are maintained to ensure the very best support and service for all events. A Destination Services department representative will also provide support to design and implement customized meetings. Through the Destination Services department, meeting and event planners may avail themselves of group excursions and golf tournaments, celebrity appearances, graphic design, registration staff and equipment, translation services, team building programs, film and video production with technical support and even gifts and specialty goods.

The state-of-the-art facilities at Mohegan Sun also make it possible to segment blocks of guest rooms in order to broadcast video-feeds and allow two-way conferencing from guest rooms to meeting rooms. Intra-property video teleconferencing is another high-tech feature available.
A Commitment to Excellence
An advisory board of meeting and event planners from nationally-recognized associations, companies and suppliers has made certain that every aspect of Mohegan Sun’s Convention Center fulfills the most taxing demands of today’s meeting groups. The flexibility, size and high-tech features of the meeting space are a result of the collaboration of the advisory board.

In another precedent-setting initiative, Mohegan Sun also requires all convention services management staff to obtain either MPI’s Certification in Meeting Management (CMM) or the Certified Meeting Professional (CMP) designation provided by the Convention Industry Council (CIC). Mohegan Sun will underwrite the application and examination fees associated with both credentials.
