Celebrate the season under the stars as the Sun Patio transforms into a glowing winter escape. Join us for the return of our annual Tree Lighting, where legendary performers Earth, Wind & Fire will illuminate the night before taking the stage at Mohegan Sun Arena.
Capture the moment and take photos with Santa, surrounded by twinkling lights and holiday charm.
This year, discover something new: a curated Holiday Market featuring local vendors offering seasonal finds and handcrafted gifts — perfect for browsing before the lights come on.
Items in image above may not be available, see below for full list of vendors attending.
Sip from a hot chocolate bar, enjoy festive cocktails at the Sun Patio Bar, and let the sounds of live carolers set the mood. It’s a moment made for gathering, giving, and glowing.
