Busch Gardens Williamsburg (formerly known as Busch Gardens Europe and Busch Gardens: The Old Country) is a 422-acre amusement park in James City County near Williamsburg, Virginia, United States. Located approximately 60 miles (100 km) northwest of Virginia Beach, the park was developed by Anheuser-Busch (A-B) and is owned by SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment. It opened on May 16, 1975, adjacent to Anheuser-Busch's brewery and near its other developments, including the Kingsmill Resort complex.
The park is themed to various European country themes and was initially named Busch Gardens: The Old Country. In 1993, the park was renamed Busch Gardens Williamsburg and briefly named Busch Gardens Europe from 2006 to 2008. In 2015, an estimated 2.78 million guests attended the park, ranking it twentieth in overall attendance among amusement parks in North America. In addition to its landscaping and European themes, Busch Gardens is widely known for its roller coasters, including Griffon, Verbolten, Pantheon, Alpengeist, and Apollo's Chariot, the latter of which was ranked as the fourth-best steel coaster in the annual Golden Ticket Awards publication from Amusement Today in 2012.

[@ElevatorsOfSouthernNC]

Our band and chorus are going here in April 2024. Thank you for making a guide of here. Now I’m more exited.

[@themepark101]

Awesome. Hope you have a great time! 😁

[@Guildc0zii]

I grew up going every year. Got season passes every year and loved it. I have my own kid now and would love to bring him but i now live 18 hours away 😭

[@CBBBBBYYYYYYY]

I went here last year and I was horrified of roller coasters when I came here I rode the locus monster first and I realized it wasn’t that bad and now I love roller coasters and I want to go again

[@darkshogun5887]

I really love Busch Gardens. I worked for Water Country when I was 16 (I'm 41 now). The last time I went to BG was during the employee appreciation day that year I think. I MAY have gone once more that year but I can't remember. They have a lot of different coasters that they didn't have back then. I do miss the Big Bad Wolf though.

[@carminecdinoproductions]

I’d love to see Busch Gardens Williamsburg get a fairytale themed section for the younger kids or maybe a second gate theme park dedicated to classic fairytales found throughout Europe!

[@andrewwilliams6008]

They have Land of the Dragons in Germany!

[@carminecdinoproductions]

@@andrewwilliams6008 I know that, but a second gate that centers around European fairytales would be exciting with plenty of different characters and stories!

[@dielie1026]

For anyone who has never been IT IS AMAZING! Loch Ness monster is thrilling and amazing my favorite is pantheon (Also very intense) The new darkoaster is really fun fast and thrilling but the line is crazy and not really worth it but the line gives you context on the story and you can really explore through the line Pompeii is also fun but there is better rides like verbolten which is one of my FAVORITE rides very fast and the drop always hits you out of nowhere I do miss the drop tower but I put my attention on verbolten cause it was across from it And then there is INVADR very bumpy but still fun and the log flume is cool it’s really just Pompeii but better Apollos chariot is also cool and fun hard to explain though Thats all i remember cause I went today since it’s a hour away from me definitely a amazing theme park and I highly recommend

[@Venetiaisslay]

Me and my family go after thanksgiving which means like half of the rides are closed:( Verbolten is still a fav tho!!

[@robertojr4396]

Omg Celtic Fyre I hear so much about this show I want to experience it one day

I’d love to see more Busch Gardens parks for Florida, Texas, California, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey!

[@CoralCaper]

There is already one in florida but i agree

[@carminecdinoproductions]

@@CoralCaper Yeah! We should expect new Busch Gardens parks for these US Cities: - Cape May, New Jersey - Jackson, New Jersey (adjacent to Six Flags Great Adventure) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - Orlando, Florida (an African themed Busch Gardens for Orlando while the Tampa Busch Gardens would have a Florida theme) - Miami, Florida - St. Louis, Missouri (having an Americana theme) - Dallas, Texas - Arlington, Texas - San Antonio, Texas - Sacramento, California (similar to the African themed Tampa Busch Gardens, but with an Asian theme) - San Diego, California (another African themed Busch Gardens park similar to Busch Gardens Tampa, but in San Diego)

[@tyrannoyoshi]

Can you do a restaurant guide for Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure?

[@themepark101]

It's on the list, but will most likely be after the summer.

I still can't believe they got rid of the Wolf roller-coaster, and the dark 3d ride. 😢

[@carminecdinoproductions]

Here’s my list of ideas for rides and attractions at Busch Gardens Williamsburg - Enchanted Storybook Forest of Fairytale Fun (a new fairytale themed section for Busch Gardens Williamsburg that celebrates the many fairytales of Europe) - Enchanted Storybook Forest Fairytale Trail (a walk-through attraction featuring various classic fairytales) - Enchanted Forest Fairytale StoryBrook (a boat-based family dark ride inspired by various classic fairytales that takes guests through various stories) - Royal Fairytale Theatre (a theater that features rotating stage plays based on classic fairytales) - The Enchanted Fairytale Dragon Coaster (a family roller coaster themed to a fairytale dragon) - The Big Bad Wolf (a family roller coaster themed to the classic fairytale villain of the same name and a reimagining of the defunct Big Bad Wolf coaster) - Ogre (a spinning flat ride themed and named to the fiendish fairytale monster) - Flying Fairytale Dragons (a spinning flat ride with dragons) - Beware the Big Bad Wolf (a dark ride featuring the Big Bad Wolf) - Jack and the Beanstalk: A Giant Journey (a suspended family coaster based on the classic fairytale “Jack and the Beanstalk”) - Rapunzel Tower Climb (a family drop tower ride based on the classic fairytale “Rapunzel”) - The Puss in Boots Adventure (a dark ride based on the classic fairytale “Puss in Boots”) - Beauty and the Beast: An Enchanted Tale (a walkthrough attraction recreating the classic fairytale) - Cinderella Pumpkin Carriages (a family ride based on the classic fairytale “Cinderella”) - Snow White: An Enchanted Adventure (a walkthrough attraction based on the classic fairytale “Snow White”) - Regal Castle Carousel (a classic carousel ride with enchanted chariots and various animals including traditional horses, unicorns, griffons, dragons, wolves, deer, bears, rabbits, frogs, and other animals) - Festa Italia Carousel (a double-decker Venetian carousel with enchanted chariots and various animals and fantasy creatures) - The Roman Ruins Adventure (a walkthrough attraction through Roman ruins) - GrecoRoma: A Mythological Adventure (a dark ride focusing on Greek Mythology) - The Legend of Robin Hood: A Sherwood Forest Adventure (a dark ride based on the Legend of Robin Hood) - The Journey of King Arthur (a dark ride based on Arthurian legend) - Merlin’s Magic Mixer (a spinning flat ride themed to the wizard Merlin) Also, here’s an idea I have for a possible second gate theme park for Busch Gardens Williamsburg that’s a family theme park focusing on fairytales called “Busch Gardens Old Country Fairytale Forest”!

[@themepark101]

Unfortunately not

[@therealchristinedaee]

@@themepark101 probably because people don’t keep their arms down. Last time I went, the operator kept stopping the ride because of this. Might have been in 2008 or 2009.

Thank you I’ll be stationed close to this place next month and I was debating on if I should get one of there passes but I wanted to make sure it was a good place first.

Pretty sure you can put the cost of a day pass towards an annual pass at the end of your visit.

[@JazmineL08]

Military gets 4 free tickets once a year. Just printed ours and going next weekend.

[@jamesfiaco4922]

This is definitely my favorite amusement park. And I am always thinking of ways to enhance that fun so the experience becomes physically mentally financially spiritually beneficial and rewarding. Example the roller coasters should include some kind of test to see how well a person may keep their composure under high intensity excitement. Like being able to write your name and address before the ride ends. I think would be a fun way to test one's eye hand coordination similar to astronauts and jet fighters. Equally as true all roller coasters today should automatically have an electronic system that is constantly scanning the track for weakness fractures rust and corrosion. And with today's technologies should be no problem to upgrade any and all other roller coasters which will maximize on safety so people may have extreme fun on every ride

[@bbkingme8831]

Dark castle was the best ride compared to the modern universal 3d rides. Why would they get rid of it. Old roller coaster fast spinnin rides are dated. Played out. Especially when u ride spiderman in universal and similar rides. This is like a big local carnival. Aside from Pompeii
