Connecticut’s Foxwoods Casino has reopened its largest indoor entertainment venue at 25 percent capacity. Performances resumed this month for the first time since March at the Grand Theater, thanks in part to the state entering phase three of its reopening.

Foxwoods Address and Driving Directions; The sprawling front porch at Two Trees Inn at Foxwoods Resort Casino is the perfect place to start our tour; it's a nice, shady place to relax while waiting for a complimentary shuttle ride to the casino, and it gives this hotel—one of four hotels at Foxwoods—a touch of New England country inn charm. Foxwoods Resort Casino is going to try a new tactic to attract certain gamblers. The property in Mashantucket, Connecticut is creating a gambling area specifically for the 55-and-over crowd.

“We have been intricately planning how to safely resume live, indoor entertainment for over four months, which resulted in a thoughtful and slow process to ensure we rebuilt the right infastructure in our theaters,” says Monique Sebastian, VP of entertainment and marketing for the casino.

Connecticut was one of the early hot spots of the pandemic, due in part to its interconnected nature and proximity to New York. The state went into a lockdown in mid-March as cases mounted, but has been able to slowly bring events and activities back online as case numbers subsided.

Governor Ned Lamont brought the state into its Phase 3 reopening on October 8. Both outdoor event venues and indoor space are allowed to reopen with up to 50 percent capacity limits in place, provided at least six feet spacing can be maintained between parties. Governor Lamont has resisted a rollback to phase two despite rising case numbers in the state, preferring instead to allow local authorities to determine localized rollbacks as case numbers dictated.
