Busch Gardens Williamsburg (BGW) recently conducted a survey to explore ideas for future attractions, prompting discussions among fans about enhancing the park’s offerings. Excited about potential upgrades like the Loch Ness Monster and the Big Bad Wolf 2, BGWFANS suggests several attractions to fill gaps in the current lineup.
Suggested Attractions Overview:
-
Animal Exhibits: New habitats could feature indigenous species like lynxes, badgers, and otters. These setups can enhance education and connection to wildlife, especially during seasonal events like Christmas.
-
Antique Car Ride: A family-friendly ride where guests navigate scenic tracks in colorful race cars is desired, capitalizing on nostalgia and family experiences.
-
Family Flat Rides: More flat rides are essential for family enjoyment. Suggestions include new attractions in various park areas, like San Marco and Oktoberfest.
-
Dark Ride: A new dark ride based on Grimm’s fairy tales would fill a significant attraction gap since the closure of Darkastle, providing indoor entertainment year-round.
-
Flying Theater: An immersive ride showcasing European landscapes. Although reminiscent of existing attractions, it could enhance the park’s offerings.
-
Boat Ride: A dynamic water ride exploring European history could replace older attractions, improving the guest experience during summer.
-
Major Coaster: While a new coaster could attract thrill-seekers, there’s concern it might overshadow family-friendly appeal. Suggestions include unique coaster types that diversify the lineup.
- Other Attractions: Ideas for children’s areas and performances were floated, emphasizing the need for shows that blend well with BGW’s themes.
Fans expressed a desire for a balanced mix of attractions, prioritizing family-friendly options alongside thrill rides. Feedback is encouraged via various social media platforms and forums to gauge community interest in these concepts.
