ORLANDO, Fla. (May 19, 2014) – What’s the best thing about kids being out of school for the summer? Celebrating at SeaWorld® Orlando and Busch Gardens® Tampa all week long! Both parks are launching an all-new “select your day, select your savings” ticket offer.

Whether you want to visit the chills of Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin at SeaWorld or the thrills of Cheetah Hunt at Busch Gardens, weekdays are the best time to explore the parks.

At SeaWorld Orlando, guests can climb aboard and ride the mighty Manta®, experience the power and grace of killer whales in the awe-inspiring Shamu® show One Ocean®, share an epic voyage with sea turtles on the 3D 360 TurtleTrek® and feel what it’s like at the bottom of the world and get up close with more than 250 penguins at Antarctica: Empire of the Penguinâ„¢.

Throughout the summer, guests will find themselves surrounded by SeaWorld’s 50th Celebration and a Sea of Surprises, including new interactive experiences, even more up-close animal encounters, giant sea life sculptures at the all-new SEA Garden and the SeaWorld “Surprise Squad” roaming the park on a daily basis randomly giving away prizes and special gifts. Oceans of spontaneous entertainment will flow throughout the pathways and an amazing new nighttime show, Shamu’s Celebration: Light Up the Night, debuts June 21. This high-energy evening show will include new, original music and production elements, as well as new killer whale behaviors.

Only an hour away at Busch Gardens is the ultimate family adventure, offering 300 acres of fascinating attractions, like Florida’s first triple-launch coaster Cheetah Hunt, and the all-new Pantopia. The centerpiece of Pantopiaâ„¢ is Falcon’s Furyâ„¢, North America’s tallest freestanding drop tower. The one-of-a-kind ride stands at 335 feet and takes riders soaring straight down.
