More Busch Gardens Concerts Announced
This morning, Busch Gardens revealed the rest of their lineup for the Food & Wine Festival Concert Series for 2025. It’s quite a mix of rock, pop, country and classic rock. There’s even a little Latino and disco flavor on the lineup now. The performances will begin March 7 and run through May 18. Concerts are free with park admission. New this year at Busch Gardens will be concerts on Fridays.
Several shows were announced a few weeks ago, including Flo Rida, Luis Fonsi and Grand Funk Railroad. But the lineup is really filled in now. Some of the must-see Busch Gardens shows for me will be Sister Hazel (their 90s hits like “All For You” are great, but their Eagles covers are awesome), The Commodores (“Brick House”), and Third Eye Blind (“Semi Charmed Life,” “How’s It Gonna Be”).
