From June 4-20, each weekend will have special themes for families to participate in while visiting the park. There will be several special events happening each weekend, including Let’s Play Together!, a heartwarming show at the park’s Globe Theater where families can sing and dance with Elmo and his friends while learning about the beauty of friendship. Additionally, kids can partake in the Sunny Day Celebration every half hour, which features some of Sesame Street’s favorite friends on the Sesame Street Forest of Fun stage.

BGW is also introducing an all-new Flower Maze, where families are invited to explore each twist and turn in this colorful outdoor flower-themed maze.

The park is still running at limited capacity with enhanced sanitation procedures and social distancing encouraged throughout. Recently, Busch Gardens Williamsburg announced that it, as well as its sister water park, Water Country USA, will allow guests who are fully vaccinated to attend without having to wear facial coverings. However, the parks are not requiring proof of vaccination status.
