Northeast’s premier entertainment destination transforms into a tropical paradise this January
UNCASVILLE, CT (December 27, 2011) – There’s no need to hop a seaplane or go aboard a ferry to island hop this winter. Just head over to Mohegan Sun this January for a special weekend of island hopping fun under the Sun!
On Saturday, January 14th, escape the winter blues with Mohegan Sun’s Island Hop party – where the 130,000 square-foot Shops concourse will be transformed into a tropical paradise complete with a tiki bar, steel drummers, Island Oasis signature drinks, a live DJ and more. Food, drink and retail specials will also be featured at a number of restaurants and retailers throughout the property including Ballo Italian Restaurant & Social Club, Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville, Jasper White’s Summer Shack and Tommy Bahama, among several others.
As part of Island Hop at Mohegan Sun, guests will receive their very own Mohegan Sun “passport.” Each time a guest ‘island hops’ at any of the participating retailers or restaurants, they will receive a stamp. Once they collect at least three stamps, they can enter to win an eight day (seven night) Celebrity Cruise! The prize, valued at over $4,000, includes balcony cabin accommodations, all meals, entertainment, taxes and tips.
The winner will be chosen on January 14th at 11:15pm at the DJ stage in The Shops at Mohegan Sun. One entry per person. Must be present to enter; need not be present to win. All participants must also be Player’s Club card holders and at least 21 years of age.
