A tidal wave of lien filings over the past few weeks has many questioning the future of SeaWorld, and noteworthy experts think bankruptcy could be in the cards.

Public documents published in April showed that SeaWorld had enough cash (or cash equivalence) on hand to sustain a closure through the end of 2021. But now, the company seems to be dragging its feet on paying many of its bills. Missed payments are now reported on every single significant project currently in the works.

It’s going to be Phase 3, but still hazy for Busch Gardens Williamsburg

WILLIAMSBURG, VA

​Gov. Ralph Northam has officially announced plans to move into Phase 3 reopening July 1, but some local leaders are unhappy with what this means for Busch Gardens. Under Phase 3 guidelines, entertainment locations, such as Busch Gardens, would only be allowed to operate with a 1,000-person limit. Kevin Lembke, president of Busch Gardens, expressed his disappointment Tuesday during a James City County Board of Supervisors work session about Busch Gardens being lumped into a category with other entertainment. “We also continue to be confused by the groups of entertainment business we are associated with in the guidance,” he said. “Our parks are largely outdoor facilities, spread across hundreds of acres but we continue to be lumped in with businesses…like bowling alleys and skating rinks.”

ANAHEIM, CA

A coalition of unions representing 17,000 Disneyland cast members have sent a letter demanding that California Gov. Gavin Newsom stop Disney’s Anaheim theme parks from reopening on July 17 out of concern for employee safety.
“Disney wants clearance from the government to reopen the Disneyland Resort in July,” according to the letter from the Coalition of Resort Labor Unions. “Unfortunately, despite intensive talks with the company, we are not yet convinced that it is safe to reopen the parks on Disney’s rapid timetable.”
Disney has proposed plans to reopen the Downtown Disney outdoor shopping mall on July 9, Disneyland and Disney California Adventure theme parks on July 17 and Disney’s Grand Californian and Disney’s Paradise Pier hotels on July 23, pending government approval. The Disneyland resort closed in mid-March amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
