Busch Gardens Promotion: $20 Off Annual Pass

by Dana Zeliff on
in Events/Kid Fun, Hampton Roads Locals

Disclosure: This post may contain an affiliate link.

I received a Busch Gardens promotional offer in the mail today.  Get $20 off a 1-Year Busch Gardens Annual Pass. The regular annual pass price is $119.99, so pay just $99.99 after promo code.

The 1-Year Annual Pass includes unlimited visits for 12 months from purchase date including Howl-O-Scream and 50% Off Christmas Town Admission.  You also get FREE parking plus dining and shopping discounts.

How to redeem the offer:

1.  Go to buschgardens.com/va
2.  Select “Promo Code” from the menu bar
3.  Enter BGWUPFC

I’m considering this for my entire family this year.  We typically get an annual pass for me and a Fun Card for Monkey and Derrick.  The Fun Card price is $69.99 at the current price, so I need to decide if we will visit during Howl-O-Scream enough to make the extra cost worth it.

Offer is valid online only through October 12, 2012 and doesn’t qualify for EZPay.

I’m not sure if they will continue the FREE Preschool Pass into 2013, but it is something to keep in mind.

Water Country USA – Free Preschool Pass Offer

by Dana Zeliff on
in Events/Kid Fun, Hampton Roads Locals

Disclosure: This post may contain an affiliate link.

I am so excited, I actually squealed when I received an email from Water Country USA!

Many of you already know that Busch Gardens offers a FREE Preschool Pass for children ages 3-5 years.   This is a fantastic promotion for VA residents since park tickets are so pricey!  Now you can use that same Preschool Pass at Water Country USA!!!!!  I know!  Some of you just got as excited as I am!

Now for a limited time, your Busch Gardens’ Preschool Pass is valid for admission to Water Country USA until Sept. 3, 2012.

If you have registered online for your Preschool Pass but have not yet visited, make sure you visit Busch Gardens Williamsburg to redeem your child’s pass. Don’t forget to bring your child’s birth certificate to the park to redeem.

Don’t forget about the $20 online Discount for VA Residents!!  Adults and older children can take advantage of this offer to make a relatively inexpensive day at the waterpark!

*Please note that this was offer was sent to me via email since I currently have a Busch Gardens Preschool Pass.  Another reader also received the same email.  We scanned LuLu’s preschool pass at the turnstile without a problem.
