MONTVILLE, CT — Mohegan Sun has announced that its Annual Annual Sun Wine & Food Fest will be postponed until 2022. The casino resort began a phased reopening in June, but many parts of the property have remained limited or closed due to pandemic restrictions.

"This difficult decision was made in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as keeping the community safe takes precedence," a statement from Mohegan sun reads. "Over the past 17 years, Sun Wine & Food Fest has developed into a four-day, multi-event festival. The event welcomes thousands of guests over the course of the weekend and features 30 local and nationally acclaimed chefs. Hundreds of vendors are also showcased to offer the greatest assortment of experiences for guests. Sun Wine & Food Fest brings people from all over for the same reason – to celebrate and experience the incredible art and joy of the culinary world."

Despite the cancellation, Mohegan Sun said it is still looking to support partners and the culinary community. The 18th Annual Sun Wine & Food Fest will occur in 2022.
