Easter events in Surrey and South East England

The Easter holidays are creeping up on us and before we know it we’ll be surrounded by daffodils, easter eggs and April showers. So what Easter events in Surrey and South East England are there in 2024?

There are SO many events on for the whole family, you’ll be swamped for choice during the school holidays. Many of which are a free event included in the entry price, and you often get easter treats at the end.

A good starting point is checking out the National Trust Website, or English Heritage Website as these are open over Easter Weekend and have some of the best events for the Easter Break. However, there are lots of other Easter adventures to be had, so I have singled out some Easter activities below that I think sound fantastic.

Go hunting for the larger-than-life hand-painted eggs hidden around the garden on ‘The giant Easter egg hunt’ and get stuck in with family-friendly planting and craft workshops. This is always a great place to visit over Easter as not only do they have lots of fun things on (not to mention the fun adventure playground!) but the gardens are also looking their very best with stunning spring flowers in bloom. On the way out don’t forget to pop into their fantastic shop and garden centre.
