Spring is almost here and so is the opening of Busch Gardens Williamsburg.  The park opened May 16, 1975 to a huge crowd.  This year will be no different.

With a new coaster premier, more additions to the Food & Wine Festival, and a new show in the Festhaus, there will be plenty to draw people of all ages back for another year of fun.

In honor of providing us with 40 years of traditions and wonderful memories, I would like to post an amazing find that Gary Terrell has shared on the BGW Memories Facebook Page.  It is a preview brochure that advertises Busch Gardens in 1974 and features some stunning conceptual art.

This year I look forward to seeing the park evolve and also seeing it reflect on the past history.  40 Years is certainly something to celebrate!

Without further ado~  The brochure.
