Iron Gwazi, the signature roller coaster at Busch Gardens Tampa, has proven to be a major attraction, drawing crowds eager to experience an exhilarating ride. However, a significant change has dampened the excitement for many visitors: the introduction of a mandatory paid locker service.
Recently, as a safety precaution, Busch Gardens implemented metal detectors and required the use of paid lockers. This is an important step in ensuring a safe experience for everyone. With that being said, Busch Gardens now charges for these lockers, which essentially means guests must pay each visit in order to ride Iron Gwazi.

Unlike many other amusement parks around the country that offer complimentary locker services, Busch Gardens Tampa charges a fee, adding to the overall cost of what should be an enjoyable day at the theme park. For individuals, these costs can quickly add up, making the day exponentially more expensive. It is not a good look that the most popular ride in the park is now an upcharge attraction.
By offering free locker services at Iron Gwazi, Busch Gardens would demonstrate a commitment to enhancing guest satisfaction and experience. Guests with positive experiences are more likely to return, spread positive word of mouth, and recommend the park to others, ultimately benefiting Busch Gardens financially in the long term.

We call upon Busch Gardens Tampa to take a stand for guest satisfaction and financial fairness by eliminating fees on small lockers at Iron Gwazi. By doing so, they will not only enhance the guest experience but also continue to attract more visitors in a competitive amusement park industry.
Please sign this petition to urge Busch Gardens Tampa to make Iron Gwazi's lockers free and ensure a more enjoyable experience for all visitors.
