Britain's What's On Event Guide
Humpty Dumpty Free Easter Egg Hunt
Get ready for an eggstraordinary Easter celebration at Merchant Square, Paddington's canalside haven, on Friday, 5th April from 11am to 4pm.
This year's annual Easter Egg Hunt promises to be a cracking good time, with the brilliant Bakehouse Factory events agency leading the Humpty Dumpty-themed festivities at Floating Pocket Park.
The egg-citing adventure will feature the delightfully dippy characters of The Egg Soldiers, Humpty Dumpty, and Queen Yolko Oh-No, who will bring the experience to life in a series of fun-filled family story sessions.
Children and their grown-ups will work together to find all the broken egg pieces, gather the King's Men, and put the nearly eight-foot-tall Humpty back together again before the King notices his buddy has cracked up.
Queen Yolko Oh-No will oversee a delightfully dippy training school, teaching little helpers how to be the best possible Egg Soldiers. Families who successfully put Humpty back together will receive a royally delicious chocolate egg for their contribution.
The Humpty Dumpty Easter Egg Hunt will be divided into six 45-minute sessions throughout the day, with limited spaces available on a first-come, first-served basis.
But the egg-stravaganza doesn't stop there! Families can also embark on an Easter Bunny Hunt throughout Merchant Square, searching for Easter yard signs at various landmarks. Successful hunters will be rewarded with a chocolate prize.
Cosmic Charity will be on-site hosting free activities and encouraging donations, while a pop-up food truck and live performances will add to the lively atmosphere.
With its convenient location adjacent to Paddington Tube Station and a short walk from Edgware Road Station, Merchant Square offers the perfect setting for an egg-cellent family day out.
