Can't Miss Events

Liberty & Lights Drone Show

On Saturday, May 23 at 9 p.m., look to the sky for a high-energy Drone Show over the lake. Set to music and visible throughout the Water’s Edge area, this cutting-edge nighttime experience brings color, motion, and celebration together to launch the season in style.

Free Admission for Military Heroes

Wild Adventures will proudly offer free admission to all active and retired military members May 23 through May 25. Guests will simply present a valid military ID or DD Form 214 at the gate. It’s our way of honoring those who have served.

Support Your Community and Save

Bring at least $10 worth of non-perishable food items to donate to Second Harvest of South Georgia and receive 50 percent off admission. Every donation supports families across the region, giving you a simple way to give back while enjoying your day in the park.

Watermelon, Contests, and Summer Vibes

The Georgia Watermelon Association returns with fresh samples, recipe cards, and contests on Saturday, May 23 in Oasis Outpost. The Watermelon Ambassador and the 2026 Watermelon Queen will both be in attendance.

Splash Island Opens Daily

Starting May 23, Splash Island Waterpark will be open every day for the summer. More days. More slides. More ways to cool off.

Meet the Animals Up Close

Upgrade your weekend with an Animal Encounter and meet some of our most popular residents face to face. Guests can experience sloths, tamanduas, and giraffes in guided encounters designed to create unforgettable moments. It’s hands-on, up-close, and uniquely Wild Adventures.
