Egg-citing things to do in Bournemouth for Easter

Before you know it, the Easter holidays will be here, and you’ll be scratching your head trying to figure what to do with the kids for two weeks (two weeks?!)

If you’re in need of some inspiration then look no further as we have a cracking range of activities, events and entertainment happening all over the resort that will get your Easter break off to an egg-cellent start.

Easter Fun

It’s wabbit season! Love Bournemouth Bunnies returns this Easter.  The competition has returned and is giving families the chance to win £100 by finding 21 golden bunnies hopping across Bournemouth.

In the run-up to Easter, people are encouraged to visit our coastal villages to find the 21 golden bunnies who are hopping in and out of shops, hotels and restaurants all over Westbourne, West Cliff, Bournemouth Seafront, East Cliff, Boscombe, Pokesdown, Southbourne and Tuckton.

Keep a beady eye out when entering one of the 126 businesses that are involved as you’ll need to be on the lookout for virtual bunnies as well as the golden ones hiding across town. To take part, all you need to do is take either a selfie or a photo of the bunny on social media with the hashtag #LoveBournemouthBunnies and you will be entered into a draw to win a number of eggs-travagent prizes!

Also, don’t miss the giant golden bunny over the Easter weekend! Catch a glimpse of the 5-metre rabbit on 20^th April at Boscombe Sovereign Centre and Monday 22^nd April at Southbourne Fisherman’s Walk.

Egg hunts and trails

Across the town and beyond are many Easter egg hunts and trails for you and your little ones to take to take part in. Further afield, you will many hidden eggs and treats at Kingston Lacy, Studland Beach, Corfe Castle & Moors Valley Country Park.
