Yes, except for the parking
Yes, great america's gold pass covers all events at Gilroy gardens. But you will have to pay parking. Single day is $20 or parking annual pass is $40. If you go more than once, annual pass is the best for parking, they give a sticker that you should show for free parking every time you visit.
Yes it does
Yes ,I think Gold pass does allow.
I asked when we were there last month and they said they hadn't decided yet for this year and to watch the website. I looked, but didn't see anything. You might try calling.
