Easter is around the corner and to make it an egg-stra special one, we’ve rounded up the best egg hunts around Sydney. From neighbourhood parks to huge farms and more, these joyous egg hunts are an excellent opportunity for family and friends to come together and spend time while kids search high and low for hidden treasures. Many of these egg-cellent hunts also feature music, live entertainment, food, crafts and the Big Bunny himself. Here are some of our favourites around town.
