TAMPA - Join the party every night this summer at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay as the park celebrates 50 years of fun.
Summer Nights offers extended hours, special entertainment, the thrill of riding coasters in the dark and festive food and drink every night through Aug. 16.
This year’s event is truly unique as Busch Gardens celebrates 50 years as Tampa Bay’s No. 1 destination for family adventure. An infectious dance designed expressly for park guests will amp up the energy every night, and DJs will spin party songs all night long from four different spots throughout the park.
Darren Romeo, the voice of magic presented by Siegfried and Roy, returns to Busch Gardens this summer with his captivating mix of magic and music in the Moroccan Palace. Jeff Civillico presents his amazing blend of comedy, juggling, balancing, athleticism and audience participation in Marrakesh Theater.
While you’re at the park, stop by the new exhibit that honors Busch Gardens 50th birthday. Hundreds of items, including photos, souvenirs and artifacts from the park, are on display.
A 70-foot timeline features photos dating from the park’s beginnings as a bird gardens and brewery tour to its present status as a world-renowned adventure park. The exhibit is located between the Crown Colony House Restaurant and the Clydesdale Hamlet. It is open during regular park hours and is included in park admission.
Park hours for Summer Nights are extended until 9 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays and until 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Summer Nights is included with a day’s paid admission or any annual pass.
