Busch Gardens
From Muppet Wiki
The Busch Entertainment Corporation owns theme parks in the United States, including Sesame Place. As of August 2006, Busch has the rights to use the characters from Sesame Street in four other theme parks -- two SeaWorld parks in Orlando and San Diego, and two Busch Gardens parks, Busch Gardens Europe in Williamsburg, Virginia, and Busch Gardens Africa in Tampa, Florida.
At Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, the characters will begin appearing in spring 2010; all attractions will have an African theme.
Characters have appeared at SeaWorld Florida since 2007, and at SeaWorld California since 2008.
Busch Gardens Europe
Busch Gardens Europe, in Williamsburg, Virginia, opened a new attraction area called Sesame Street Forest of Fun in April 2009. [1]
