In 2025, Busch Gardens Williamgburg debuted The Big Bad Wolf: The Wolf’s Revenge, a suspended roller coaster.

Earlier this week, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay announced it will open an expanded animal habitat, Lion & Hyena Ridge, in 2026.

Busch Gardens parks belong to United Parks & Resorts, the same company that owns SeaWorld and Sesame Place theme parks. This week, CEO Marc Swanson reported a quarterly loss of attendance and revenue for United, and said the company can “do better” at marketing its parks. Two new SeaWorld parks are planned internationally.
