The Summer Nights lanyards are $34.99 per person with Pass Member discounts available.


NEW! Turn It Up! Ice Show

The Moroccan Palace is now home to the hottest show on ice, Turn It Up! This all-new, original ice show vibrantly celebrates summer with contemporary performances, aerial moments and eclectic pop music.


Thrill Rides in the Dark

It’s not summer at Busch Gardens without thrill rides in the dark. Florida’s top thrill rides will be open for Summer Nights, including favorites like Falcon’s Fury, Cheetah Hunt, SheiKra and Busch Gardens’ newest spin coaster, Cobra’s Curse™.
 
We saw Turn It Up on Saturday. I really enjoyed it, esp. the fact they were ice skating to pop music. Very nicely done.
