Wichita Easter Egg Hunts

A variety of different Easter themed activities will be available during the Sedgwick County Zoo’s Easter Eggstravaganza! From 8:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. on Saturday, April 15, guests will be able to meet the Easter Bunny, play guessing games and much more!

Bring your Easter baskets so you can collect goodies that will be located all over the Zoo! The Easter Eggstravaganza takes a unique approach to traditional egg hunts. Rather than collecting eggs, guests can look for large eggs that will be hidden throughout the zoo. Be sure to keep a close count, because answers will be redeemable for a prize!

Special activities will be held for children with special needs (1 p.m.) and visually impaired children (2 p.m.)

The Bunny Bonanza Easter egg hunt returns to Tanganyika Wildlife Park on April 15. Beginning at 10:26 a.m. this year, the event is sure to be loads of fun! Guests will have the opportunity to meet the Easter Bunny and several other animals when they visit! Though few specific details have been released for this year's Bunny Bonanza, the event has been known to offer games, candy stations, mini egg hunts and prizes!

Tanganyika Wildlife Park offers a unique up-close approach to the traditional zoo experience. Offering a variety of interactive animal encounters, Tanganyika is the perfect place to learn about and connect with animals!
