ORLANDO, Fla. – SeaWorld’s interim CEO said Wednesday he’s hoping to reopen the aquatic theme park sometime next month.
Company executive Marc Swanson made the statement to Vice President Mike Pence during an industry and hospitality roundtable discussion in Orlando.
Swanson was among a dozen industry leaders invited to speak with the vice president and Gov. Ron DeSantis. Swanson said he had submitted his plans to reopen, per the governor’s requests to theme parks.
The SeaWorld executive said upon approval, park officials will need two to four weeks to “ramp things up” and would be ready to open in June.
