Starting May 31, guests age 21 and up can enjoy a complimentary 7 oz beer sample once per day at Pantopia Drinks & Snacks. 

The Stanleyville Theatre will host a Cirque de Soleil show featuring all-new music this summer. You will be able to experience cirque-style performers performing acrobatic feats alongside a dance company that will excite you. Cirque Electric runs every Friday through Monday with shows at 3pm, 5pm, and 7pm.

There is also a new Gwazi Beats show with drums, dancers, and stilt walkers. Guests will be able to enjoy music at three different DJ dance stations.

At Bush Gardens, guests can cool off while watching a world-class skating show: Turn It Up. They’ll offer daily performances inside the Moroccan Place Theater. The show features contemporary skating performances, aerial performances and eclectic pop music.
