Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s Annual Pass members have more options to choose how they’ll explore the park’s high-speed thrills, event line-up and the return of free beer all year long in 2019. The announcement of a new Annual Pass program provides guests with more options and more value at new lower prices.
Commemorative activities and offers are planned throughout 2019 as a part of Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s 60th Celebration, including the return of two complimentary beer samples included in park admission. At Garden Gate Cafe or Serengeti Overlook Pub, guests age 21 and older can enjoy two complimentary samples each park visit in 2019, going back to the park’s roots as a beer garden when it first opened in 1959. While the beer samples are available for all adult guests at the park in 2019, only pass members will receive this exclusive benefit during the month of October 2018 as a preview of the 60th Celebration.
The new-tiered Annual Pass program includes Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum passes. The annual passes do not require a down payment and for a limited time, introductory prices start as low as $9.99 per month for Florida residents. Guests can pick the pass with the benefits they want most, pick their parks, then gear up for a calendar full of special events plus exciting new attractions coming in 2019.
