Busch Gardens Tampa Map 2019

Park maps serve a practical purpose by helping guests navigate during their visit. They also make a great souvenir and give a glimpse into the past. The maps throughout the years are a snapshot of what attractions and other features the park offered at any given point in time. Check out the maps below to see how Busch Gardens Tampa has changed since it opened in 1959.

2017 – January

2017 – March

This version of the map used during the Food & Wine Festival shows Jambo Junction and Curiosity Caverns completely removed. It also features some minor design changes – the legend and area boxes now have sharp corners instead of rounded edges, and the seasonal advertisement in the lower right corner is now rectangular in shape instead of a semi-circle.


2017 – May

This version of the map includes the new Animal Connections logo over the former Jambo Junction area, and its listing under Nairobi as an official attraction once again. See the back of this map by clicking here.


2017 – Summer Nights

As part of the Summer Nights 2017 printed guide, a map showing the various event locations and special menus was available.


2017 – September

Debuting at the beginning of the month, this version of the map only has a couple of small changes. The Sesame Street Safari of Fun logo above the location listing box has changed, with Elmo being removed. Under the Stanleyville listings, SheiKra Sweet Treats is changed to SheiKra Eats.

2018 – October

In late October 2018, the map underwent another redesign. Most of the major attractions received names over their location on the map, and instead of listings being broken up by area, they were broken down by type and placed on the right side. In addition to the design changes on the front of the map, the back of the map also received a major change. The printed park hours and showtime guide were removed entirely, instead began being printed on a separate sheet of paper available on the map stands at the main entrance. See the back of this map by clicking here.


2018 – November

A minor change was made to the map to overlay the Santa's House and Rudolph & Friends logos for Christmas Town 2018. These small changes along with in-park signage were used for Christmas Town instead of a specially printed park map as had been the case in previous years. See the back of this map by clicking here.


2020 – July

Upon reopening from the nearly three-month closure due to COVID-19 concerns, paper map distribution was suspended. Additional map boards were installed in the entrance area and around the park with signage encouraging guests to take a picture of it to have a digital version on their device to carry with them. This is a photo of one of those map boards, which marks the location of some of the face-covering relaxations zones and attractions that were temporarily closed at that point. It also lists the only scheduled entertainment available in Sesame Street Safari of Fun.


2020 – Howl-O-Scream

Due to COVID-19, the Howl-O-Scream map for 2020 was only released digitally on the event's website and available to view on map boards around the park. See more on Howl-O-Scream 2020 here.


2020 – Christmas Town

The park map received an overlay for the Christmas Town event denoting where the special shows, meet & greets, and village were located. As was the case since the park reopened earlier in the year, it was only available as a digital download or on map boards in the park.


2020 – New Year's Eve

A special digital version of the park map for December 31, 2020, was released online as part of the New Year's Eve event information. The map denotes the main location for the fireworks that evening (which required an additional paid reservation), plus other viewing locations around the park available at no extra charge.
