Conifox Adventure Park set to give away 36,000 Mini Chocolate Eggs at Easter Event

March 2024

Edinburgh’s Conifox Adventure Park is set to host its annual Easter Festival, promising hopping good fun for the whole family. And what’s more, the team will be giving away over 36,000 mini easter eggs over the course of the event.

Taking place on 23rd and 24th March, 29th March to 1st April, and 5th to 7th April, the young and young at heart can join in a variety of Easter-themed activities. Meet the Easter Bunny in Hoppity Hollow; search for carrot clues in the maze trail; snap a picture at one of our themed photo opportunities; bash about between Bouncy Burrow’s 18 giant, fun inflatables; and challenge your family and friends to classic games in the Easter-lympics. Visitors will also interact with Conifox’s egg-stra special character meet and greets, like Farmer Hamish’s story time in his Spring Garden and his wife Morag in the cosy cottage where each child will walk away with their very own cuddly plush rabbit – a momento to remember of a wonderful day.

As well as all of these fun activities, each day of the festival will feature an Easter Egg Hunt – where thousands of mini chocolate eggs will be given away. Each day, the eggs will be hidden at 11am and 3pm, ready to be discovered by children taking part. Enjoy a well-earned sweet treat after lots of hard work hunting – but look out for the cheeky Big Bad Wolf who is trying to steal the Easter Bunny’s eggs.

Included with every ticket purchase, is admission to the Adventure Park itself, which is home to heaps of engaging outdoor activities, like the 9-hole foot golf course, off-road tractors, giant sandpit, pedal go-kart course, and the giant jump pillow.

Managing Director of family-run business, Conifox, commented on the festival: “The Easter holidays are a great opportunity for the family to spend quality time together and our aim at Conifox, is to make that time as special as it possibly can be. We’ve designed a range of activities that suit all ages – and yes, we mean the grownups too. With admission included to the Adventure Park, there’s hours of entertainment for the family – and we look forward to welcoming visitors from far and wide.”

Conifox has become well known for its seasonal extravaganzas and tickets sell out quickly. You are encouraged to book early to avoid disappointment. Tickets for the Easter Festival can be purchased here and start at £15 per adult, £20 per child (12 months+) and £5 for 12 months and under.
