Couldn't decide what I wanted to do for my birthday, so we just said fuck it and got Universal tickets. I'm sure the crowds are going to be insane, but we got the early admission to Super Nintendo World, so hopefully it's not too bad.
Anyone familiar with Busch Gardens Tampa? What does a Friday during the school year look like usually for crowds?
Fridays during the school year are much worse than other weekdays because of field trips. We did Animal Kingdom for our reading students a few years ago and the amount of yellow buses was pretty overwhelming.
I haven't been in awhile but weekdays while school is in have usually always been completely dead. Like a 5 person line to get on most coasters dead. Don't think BG gets a very big field trip crowd. In Tampa Bay regional field trips to see animals usually go to ZooTampa or Old McMicky's Farm. Or for big field trips they just go to Disney.
I’ve only ever been to BG Tampa on weekdays during March/April in the past, and most of the rides were typically walk ons.
They will never get around to developing a replacement for the 30+ year old painfully outdated Beauty and the Beast musical at DHS but they will develop this based off a thing that came out just a little over a year ago...
what's considered the best festival? i've only done the arts one and it was pretty good, didn't get to try everything but of the things I did the food ranged from decent to really good
I have seen some people calling for them to add a "science and technology festival" I guess to go with the theme of the World Discovery land and as a callback to Innovations. Good idea on paper, but those festivals are primarily A way to sell food and drinks and I don't see how they can tie that into STEM stuff in a way that makes money.
Food & Wine is the biggest, with the most variety of food and drink, but I like the vibes of Flower & Garden better
