Emergency Shutdown at Busch Gardens: Official Statement Released
Busch Gardens has issued an official statement following an unexpected emergency shutdown at the park earlier today. The incident, which occurred during peak visitor hours, led to the temporary closure of several attractions and evacuation of select areas as a precaution.
According to park officials, the emergency was triggered by a technical issue involving a critical ride system. Out of an abundance of caution, operations across the park were suspended while crews assessed the situation. No injuries have been reported, and all guests were safely escorted to designated areas.
In their statement, Busch Gardens emphasized their commitment to guest safety, stating, “The safety of our guests and team members is our top priority. Our team responded quickly and followed established safety procedures.”
While full details of the incident have not been disclosed, maintenance teams are actively working to resolve the issue. Park management is cooperating with local authorities and safety inspectors to ensure all systems meet operational standards before reopening.
Guests with reservations or affected by the closure are being contacted directly by Busch Gardens’ guest services team for assistance. Updates on reopening and ticketing will be provided as soon as available.
The park has thanked visitors for their patience and understanding during the disruption.
