What Is the Easter Eggstravaganza?
The Easter Eggstravaganza is a seasonal celebration held throughout the Easter holidays at the park. Guests are invited to explore themed trails, complete fun challenges and meet special Easter characters as they journey around the Safari Walk and Discovery Trail areas.
The park is transformed with bright Easter decorations including giant eggs, hay bales and spring floral displays, creating perfect photo opportunities for families visiting during the holiday period.
The event is designed to be suitable for all ages, blending the park’s wildlife experiences with seasonal activities and interactive entertainment.
Meet Bramble Bunny and Chirpy Chick
A highlight of the Easter celebration is the chance to meet the park’s cheerful Easter characters.
Guests can meet Bramble Bunny, the park’s friendly Easter mascot, who appears throughout the event in special shows and meet-and-greet sessions. Alongside him is Chirpy Chick, another seasonal character who roams the Safari Walk areas offering photo opportunities for visitors.
These character encounters are especially popular with younger visitors and provide plenty of memorable family photo moments.
