Busch Gardens' 2027 Fun Card ends before next year's Howl-O-Scream

Busch Gardens Williamsburg's 2027 Fun Card has different fall limits for this year and next. The park's current product terms list Busch Gardens admission through November 1, 2026, followed by February 12 through September 6, 2027.

That second period ends before the park's announced 2027 Howl-O-Scream dates, which begin September 10 and run on select nights through October 31. A purchase advertised with this year's Halloween access therefore does not establish admission to next year's event.

ATP compared the product terms with the park's event listing and visually reviewed both pages of its 2027 operating calendar on September 22. This is a comparison of the published terms; the sources do not establish a newly announced change.

Water Country has a different end date

For the two-park Fun Card, the detailed terms list Water Country USA validity from May 8 through September 19, 2027. The PDF marks September 18 as the water park's final operating day and leaves September 19 unmarked.

A validity period does not promise that a park opens every day within it. These sources do not establish a September 19 opening, so check the park schedule before planning around that date. The calendar says operating dates can change.

Check admission separately from the event calendar

The Fun Card terms exclude Christmas Town and parking. The PDF lists Christmas Town on select dates from November 12 through January 2, 2028, and describes it as separately ticketed, with admission included in the Membership program. The calendar also warns that Basic Membership blockout dates apply.

For this year's Halloween plans, our regional fall calendar separates event dates and admission requirements. The Return to Corkscrew Hill brief tracks the attraction's announced 2027 return; these park calendars do not establish its opening day.
