Connecticut has no state lottery keno, but two of the largest casinos on the East Coast — Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort Casino — offer keno for Connecticut players.
No. The Connecticut Lottery does not offer rapid-draw keno. Connecticut Lottery games include Powerball, Mega Millions, Lucky for Life, Cash5, Play3, Play4, and Lotto, but not the frequent-draw keno format available in states like Massachusetts (just across the border), Ohio, or Michigan.
Keno in Connecticut is available exclusively through the state's two major tribal casino operations: Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort Casino. Both are major destination casinos with full gaming floors, and both have offered keno as part of their gaming offerings.
Connecticut residents in the southern part of the state may find it more convenient to drive to Massachusetts to play state lottery keno at a local bar or convenience store, rather than making the trip to Mohegan Sun or Foxwoods. Massachusetts Keno To Go is available at 5,000+ retail locations and draws every 4 minutes. If you're near the CT/MA border, MA keno may be the more accessible option.
Mohegan Sun is located in Uncasville, Connecticut, operated by the Mohegan Tribe. It's one of the largest casino resort complexes in the United States, with three casinos (Casino of the Earth, Casino of the Sky, and Casino of the Wind) spread across a massive resort campus.
Mohegan Sun has historically offered keno on its gaming floor, including:
Mohegan Sun is approximately 45 minutes from Hartford, 2 hours from Boston, and 2.5 hours from New York City, making it a major East Coast destination. Call ahead at (888) 226-7711 or check mohegansun.com to confirm current keno availability and hours.
Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut, is operated by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. Foxwoods is one of the largest casino complexes in the world by floor space, with six casinos across the property.
Foxwoods keno offerings typically include:
Foxwoods is about 10 minutes from Mohegan Sun, making it possible to visit both casinos in the same trip. Check foxwoods.com or call (800) 369-9663 to confirm current keno availability before visiting.
Both casinos are large enough to have competitive keno operations, but paytables and formats change. Before making a trip primarily for keno, call both properties to compare current paytables and draw schedules. The casino with the better posted keno odds is worth the extra few minutes of research.
Keno at Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods follows the standard format:
Connecticut's geographic position means some residents have access to keno in neighboring states:
Both Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods are large enough that keno may be operating in only certain areas or at certain times. A quick call to confirm keno is available saves a wasted trip.
Both Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods have loyalty programs that reward keno play. Mohegan Sun's Momentum rewards and Foxwoods Rewards both offer points for keno wagering that can be redeemed for free play, dining, or hotel stays.
If you want to play keno casually without a casino trip, crossing into Massachusetts or Rhode Island gives you access to state lottery keno at local bars and convenience stores. For northern and eastern CT residents, this may be the more accessible option.
Just across the border — Massachusetts Keno To Go draws every 4 minutes at 5,000+ retailers. A convenient option for CT residents near the border.
