Easter is almost here, and the UK attractions are back open for the main season. Some attractions are choosing to celebrate easter a little more than others – here are some of our top picks for Easter breaks in 2024!
Eggsplorers – Chessington World Of Adventures (March 23-25th / 28th March – 14th April)
Eggsplorers returns for 2024 at Chessington following a successful first year and promises family fun. Eggsplorers includes an Easter activity trail, a meet and greet with Bonnie the Easter Bunny, live shows and new for this year, Enchanted Hollow Easter Egg Hunt!
The activity trail will take guests through the park looking for giant decorated easter eggs – it would be cool if these were themed to the park’s themed lands or animals! As well as meeting Bonnie, there will also be the chance to meet Elmer and characters from CoComelon! On the Mane Stage this year, there will be an all-new underwater themed show too.
Enchanted Hollow has already been a successful addition to the park in both the Halloween and Christmas events, so we are confident that it will be a success for this event too. During the Halloween version, we received a range of delicious Cadbury treats and had a wonderful immersive journey into the Hollow – The Easter edition will be similar with another great cast of characters and most likely, easter eggs! The Enchanted Hollow is an upcharge attraction at £8 per person for this event.
On top of all of this, the theme park and zoo are all open for guests to enjoy!
Easter Eggstravaganza – West Midlands Safari Park (23rd March – 7th April)
Bramble Bunny returns to West Midlands Safari Park for another year of Easter fun. During the event Bramble can be found across the park at various times meeting guests – be sure to have your camera at the ready! As well as the return of Bramble, there are some new experiences this year, Brambles BIG Giveaway and the Easter Craft Club. Brambles BIG Giveaway will be a gameshow style event at 3pm every day where younger guests will be in with a chance of winning some amazing prizes – such as gift vouchers, VIP experiences, annual passes and stays in the park’s animal Lodges! The Easter Craft Club will give children the opportunity to take part in some easter crafts as well as learn some cool tricks such as plate spinning!
Returning this year is the Eggsplorer trail where guests will need to help Bramble match the eggs up to the penguins – completing this task will earn the guests a chocolate treat as a reward. As well as these activities, the park will be filled with Easter decorations including Bramble’s garden which will be excellent for photos. Speaking of photos, there will also be a photo competition where you will need to find a special Giraffe egg and even a contest to guess how many eggs are in a giant egg on the Discovery Trail.
With all of these activities as well as the Safari drive through and adventure theme park, guests will have so much choice!
Hoppy Easter – Paulton’s Park (29th March – 14th April)
This easter you can meet Bobtail Bunny and Betty Bunny at Paulton’s Park. These adorable characters will be found in the entrance plaza ensuring your visit starts off with a smile! The park will be decorated with Easter decorations such as eggs & bunnies transforming the park into an easter wonderland. During the event the rides & attractions will also be available for guests to enjoy.
These are just some of the options available for Easter this year in the UK. Will you be visiting an attraction to celebrate Easter? Let us know in the comments!
We wish you all a happy Easter!
