Join Us For Military Appreciation Week

July 1 - 8

Busch Gardens Williamsburg recognizes the dedication, courage, and sacrifice of the United States Armed Forces Members and their families with a special week-long event in their honor.

Join us for Busch Gardens’ Military Appreciation Week from July 1 – 8 for family-friendly fun including military bands, a nightly patriotic fireworks display, up-close views of military vehicles, and specialty shopping. Fly, soar and dive on our world-class lineup of attractions, including the ALL-NEW DarKoaster™, North America’s first all-indoor straddle coaster. Then rock out to award-winning Collective Soul on Saturday, July 1, and Kari Jobe on July 8, in the Royal Palace Theatre. Celebrate quality time with family and friends at The World’s Most Beautiful Theme Park adorned in red, white and blue during Military Appreciation Week.

Get complimentary and discounted admission for Active-Duty Military, and discounted admission for Veterans, by visiting wavesofhonor.com. Service Members and their families can show a valid Military ID for an additional 10% off in-park shopping and dining. Restrictions apply.
