Join in the fun of Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s pin trading experience. Collect and trade for your favorite pins at the park with ambassadors and other guests! New pins will be released periodically throughout the year so you can continue to grow your collection.
To start your pin trading experience, visit a participating gift shop where collectible pins and lanyards are available for purchase. Happy trading!
Pins and lanyards are available for purchase at select Busch Gardens shopping locations. Once you have your pins and lanyard, you can trade with Busch Gardens Ambassadors and guests who are also wearing a pin trading lanyard. Ambassadors with lanyards can be found throughout the park in gift shops, theaters, front gate, and the park entrance. You may trade up to 3 pins per Busch Gardens Ambassador, per day. You may also trade with other pin-traders in the park!
