Foxwoods Resort Casino on Tuesday reported slot revenue of $30.5m for the month of December 2021.
The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation said last month’s take led to a $7.6m direct payment to the state of Connecticut in accordance with the tribe’s long-standing slot revenue contribution agreement.
Since 1993, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation has deposited more than $4.4 bn of Foxwoods’ slot revenue directly into the state’s budget fund.
Last month, Foxwoods hosted a Holiday Swipe and Win giveaway with a chance for guests to win $100,000 in cash and prizes, including concert tickets, trips, gift cards and more with the swipe of their Foxwoods Rewards card.
Foxwoods also celebrated the holiday season all month long with a variety of festive activities across the resort. This included ice skating and enjoying meals in a holiday-inspired igloo to an over-the-top Christmas wonderland-themed dining experience at Cedars Steaks and Oysters to the annual tree lighting with performances by Ashanti and Olympic medalist Nancy Kerrigan.
Earlier this month, Foxwoods rang in the new year with three music-themed events, including Foxwoods Rock, Foxwoods Pop and Foxwoods Motown, in a one-night offering in each of the property’s three hotels.
The Foxwoods El San Juan Giveaway began on January 3, in which one lucky winner will be granted a trip to Puerto Rico to celebrate the opening of the Foxwoods El San Juan Casino. Participants can earn entries daily when they swipe their Foxwoods Rewards Card at any promotions kiosk between January 3 to 20, and activate their entries on January 21 to be eligible for the drawing. Nine lucky winners will receive $1,000 cash and one grand prize winner will receive an exclusive invitation to the new Foxwoods El San Juan Casino opening in Puerto Rico, plus $5,000 cash.
