| Sleepover at Busch Gardens (Grades 2–12)** |
Kids may be sleeping with one eye open the first time they hear a rustle — but our sleepovers are packed with so much fun and learning (shhh, don't tell them), who has time to sleep anyway? All sleepovers include a pizza snack, continental breakfast, hands-on educational activities, and sleeping at Busch Gardens.
