UNCASVILLE, CT (December 10, 2019) – Mohegan Sun All-Stars founder and famed front man, David Foster, will be singing to his fans for the last time on Friday, December 20th in Mohegan Sun’s Wolf Den. It’s a retirement from a passion he’s enjoyed for a lifetime due to health issues.

The band was inducted into the Wolf Den Hall of Fame on June 15, 2015.

We will be forever grateful for the magic he and his band created on stage for all to enjoy and remember forever!”
To share a special evening of fabulous entertainment and a tribute to a beloved entertainer, plan to attend David Foster’s final farewell performance on December 20th in Mohegan Sun’s Wolf Den.
