There is no cover charge for the concerts, but guests must be 21 or older and have a valid ID to enter. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and the music follows at 7:30.
Guests can grab a bite to eat from local food trucks or Tony Luke’s, which serves classic Philly cheesesteaks and chicken cheesesteaks. Beers, spirits and mixed drinks also will be available.
Mohegan Sun Pocono canceled last year’s Party on the Patio series because of the pandemic. This year’s concerts “will adhere to state, local and CDC guidelines, including operating at reduced capacity and enforcing social distancing,” the venue explained in an announcement.
“Masks will be required at all times except while eating or drinking,” it added. “Entry may be denied due to capacity limits and/or failure to adhere to health and safety standards, which are subject to change.”
