Celebrate Halloween with the Count and his Sesame Street friends at Busch Gardens

Busch Gardens will host a family friendly Halloween lunch and party on Oct. 22. The Halloween Monster Mash Dine will encourage lunchtime guests to do the Monster Mash and join in a costume parade. During the lunch the Count and his Sesame Street friends will interact with the crowd.

The lunch is from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. and includes a buffet-style menu featuring: penne pasta, chicken tenders, pulled pork, garden salad, fruit cobbler, and cupcakes. A detailed menu can be found online.

This special Halloween Monster Mash Dine is $22 for adults and $15 for children. Monster Mash diners will receive one 6×8 photo with The Count per family. Annual Pass members receive a 10 percent discount. Theme park admission is required to attend the event.

Children are permitted to wear costumes during the Monster Mash Dine, but costumes may need to be removed in order to safely go on rides.
