Active-duty military members and their guests can enjoy one day of complimentary admission throughout the year.

These initiatives are part of United Parks & Resorts’ Waves of Honor program, a long-standing effort to recognize and honor active-duty military members, veterans and their families with special pricing and promotions.

For over 20 years, United Parks & Resorts has provided complimentary park access to members of the U.S. military. As a result, more than 10 million guests—including active-duty military members, veterans, and their families—have benefited from the Waves of Honor program.

“We are proud to honor active-duty military, veterans, and their families with a complimentary visit to one of our parks,” said Marc Swanson, CEO of United Parks & Resorts. “We are incredibly grateful to all members of our military for their commitment and dedication to serving our country. The Waves of Honor program extends a small token of our appreciation to those who are serving or who have served. We look forward to welcoming military service members, veterans, and their families for a fun-filled day in one of our parks.”

Eligible U.S. military veterans and retirees can register for complimentary single-day tickets for themselves and up to three dependents before May 11. After registration, all tickets must be redeemed by July 6. Service members and their direct dependents must present a valid active military ID to participate.

Additionally, any U.S. active-duty military member, activated or drilling reservist, or National Guardsman can take advantage of one complimentary admission for themselves and up to three dependents per year to SeaWorld. For discounts and offers for active military and veterans, click here.
