The event will operate in a limited capacity to maintain distancing at the Halloween Maze and the trick-or-treat stations.

SeaWorld chose to modify its Halloween events instead of canceling them. At Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, SeaWorld Orlando’s sister park, its Howl-O-Scream event is set to begin September 25 and will feature open-air scare zones.

Halloween Spooktacular will take place Saturdays and Sundays through November 1 and is included in park admission.
