Paragon Casino Resort
Marksville, Louisiana
Marksville is in Avoyelles Parish in central Louisiana, approximately 100 miles northwest of New Orleans and 30 miles east of Alexandria via US-71. The Tunica-Biloxi Tribe’s reservation in Avoyelles Parish represents traditional homeland of the Tunica people — who inhabited the confluences of the Mississippi and Red rivers for centuries before European contact. Avoyelles Parish is in the heart of the Cane River country, a historically significant region of Louisiana’s French Creole heritage.
The Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment enterprise — the commercial arm of the Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut, which operates Mohegan Sun in Uncasville — manages Paragon Casino Resort under a management agreement with the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe, bringing national tribal gaming management expertise to the central Louisiana market.
