Public event to honor NKOTB in recognition of multiple big-time performances at Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday, June 12th
What: Mohegan Sun is proud to announce that the next Arena Walk of Fame 
inductee will be New Kids On The Block, a band that has played and packed Mohegan Sun Arena as many times as any act, where after their upcoming concert, will have played 9 performances in the last 8 years alone. That concert, set for June 12th, brings the Pop legends back with the The Main Event tour with special guests Nelly & TLC. And a few hours prior to the concert, Mohegan Sun Arena is long overdue and very excited to present one of the most influential bands of our time, their Walk of Fame star outside of the Mohegan Sun Box Office.
WHEN/WHERE: Friday, June 12th at 4:00pm
Mohegan Sun Arena Box Office Forecourt
WHO: Mohegan Sun and Tribal Executives

IN DETAIL: Some of Mohegan Sun Arena’s most memorable performers including Bon Jovi, KISS, Rod Stewart, Toby Keith, Taylor Swift, Frankie Valli, Mötley Crüe and so many more have been honored as Walk of Famers and have stars placed outside of the Box Office.
