No Indian Casinos

There are no Indian casinos, Indian bingo halls or Indian gaming in Pennsylvania.

However there are two Native American tribes that own and operate gambling facilities in the state. Both are licensed and regulated by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board as commercial gaming operations. Neither is controlled by the U.S. Department of Interior.

The first tribe to invest in Pennsyslvania was the Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut. It owns and operates the Mohegan Sun Pocono, a casino and racetrack located outside Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. the tribe purchased the property January 25, 2005.

The second tribe to invest in Pennsylvania was the Poarch Creek Indian Tribe of Alabama. In May 2019 the tribe purchased the Sands Bethlehem for $1.3 billion and renamed it the Wind Creek Bethlehem. This is a state-licensed, commercial casino rather than a federally regulated Indian casino. it is managed and operated by Wind Creek Hospitality, the casino and entertainment operation of the Poarch Creek Indian Tribe.
