Busch Gardens is a place of thrills, fun and positive, lasting memories. And that’s just what it’s like to work here! As a key member of our team, you’ll play a major role in bringing joy, happiness, excitement, and terror to people from around the world. If you’re dedicated, dependable and driven to deliver exceptional guest service, this is the place for you!
You and up to two guests will be able to play all day at Busch Gardens Williamsburg if you audition for Howl-O-Scream! Auditions will take place at the Globe Theatre throughout the day. After check in, you will be given an audition time. You and your guest(s) are required to attend the audition at your given time. The rest of the day is up to you! PLEASE NOTE: You must register yourself and your guest(s) by 11:30 PM on Sunday, June 20th in order to be eligible. No exceptions. You must have the name of your guest when registering.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS:
This year we are allowing you to "select your seat" when it comes to timeslots. This feature will only work when registering on a laptop/desktop. If using a mobile app, you can select your section (maze, terrortory, either) and it will select the earliest time slot for you. "Seats" are first come, first served. We are not able to change your timeslot once registered.
Please use the employee entrance for parking. Your name will be on a list with security. Check in will be located at the England bus stop. You will be given your ticket and audition time there. In order to receive park admission for you and listed guest(s), you must arrive between 9:45am - 12:45pm. Please note: You may still audition this day at a later time, but you will not be provided a ticket for you or your guest(s) into the park. ID is required upon check in.
