Wild Adventures Offers Free Admission to Kids 9 And Under

VALDOSTA, Ga. – Wild Adventures Theme Park in Valdosta, Ga., is offering free admission to all children 9 and under for the final day of Great Pumpkin LumiNights. Children attending can explore the park, enjoy fall festivities and have the potential to win a 2025 Gold Season Pass.

“We’re excited to bring back this free admission offer, making it easier for families to experience all the fun of Great Pumpkin LumiNights and The Pumpkin Spice Festival,” said Madison Tucker, public relations specialist. “With towering pumpkin sculptures, hundreds of glowing jack-o-lanterns, mesmerizing light displays, and the new additions to our LumiNight Legends Gallery, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.”

The event allows children 9 and under to enter the park for free when accompanied by an adult with a General Admission Ticket or Season Pass. Wild Adventures will open at noon, offering a day packed with family-friendly activities, including Trick-or-Treating, pumpkin painting, Jack and Luma’s Playland—which features a glow maze and Georgia’s largest foam party—and Mayor Gourdan’s Kids Costume Contest.

“Mayor Gourdan’s Kids Costume Contest is a highlight of the event,” Tucker said. “Kids who enter will have a chance to win a 2025 Gold Season Pass, and we’re thrilled to welcome back celebrity judges from Black Crow Media to help select the most original, cutest, and funniest costumes.”

Costume contest registration begins at noon on Sunday in front of Adventure Emporium, with contests scheduled for 2:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. at Lonestar Stage. The event is open to all children 9 and under.

“This weekend also marks the final days that 2025 Season Passes will be available at the current price,” said Tucker. “It’s a great time for parents to register their child aged 3-5 for a Pre-K Free Kid’s Season Pass and purchase a 2025 Season Pass for themselves for the lowest price this year.”
