In a statement Monday, Orlando said it will be a memorable evening and he's looking forward to seeing old friends and putting on a great show for veterans and active duty members.
'How could you not want to dedicate an evening to those who put their life on the line for you?' Tony Orlando said.
Orlando was last at Mohegan Sun in March of 2024, but has appeared at the casino over 60 times through his multi-decade career.
'Having Tony Orlando back at Mohegan Sun to honor our American heroes speaks to his generosity, decades long advocacy for the armed services, and the relationship he has developed with the Mohegan brand over the years,' Greg Romeyn, director of Sports & Entertainment for Mohegan Sun, said.
The GRAMMY-nominated artist is known for hits like 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon' and 'Knock Three Times.'
