Southampton Easter Trail
This Easter from 28 March – 12 April, little explorers are invited to hop into Southampton’s Old Town for a brand-new, free family trail.
The Easter Bunny is planning a special tea party to celebrate the season with all his friends, but he needs your help! Using the trail map, make your way around the city, stopping at key locations to find colourful trail posters. Each poster reveals a charming illustration of one of the items the Easter Bunny needs to make his party a success.
Once you've found them all, hop over to the final stop where children will receive a small prize for all their hard work. Don’t forget to complete the feedback section on the back of the map for your chance to win tickets to a show at this year’s Southampton Summer Sessions.
We’ll be sharing more details very soon so be sure to check back for updates.
