Busch Gardens theme park in Williamsburg, Virginia, located about an hour southeast of Richmond, operates their thrilling rides for the public throughout September 2020. The destination rocks the theme of classic Europe with landscaped villages, like the Parisian streets of France, the hamlets of Scotland and the Oktoberfest celebrations of Germany. The park has nine villages centered around six countries for visitors to explore, with the main attractions are the rides, roller coasters and shows.

While the general park remains closed, park guests can dive into fun & new flavors during the Taste of Busch Gardens, all-new specially ticketed outdoor event. Enjoy a delicious culinary fusion of Food & Wine Festival fan favorites, new twists on traditional park entrées, plus wine tastings and specialty beverages not normally served in the park. Park guests will have plenty of open space to enjoy six villages including Oktoberfest, Rhinefeld, Ireland, Scotland, France and New France, while taking in the thrills of four iconic roller coasters like Alpengeist & Verbolten, and other fun-filled rides.
