What’s on

The Easter Garden

Magic tricks, cuddle corners and chocolatey treats at Holkham

Calling all little bunnies – join us for some gentle, Easter fun in the beautiful Walled Garden. We’ll have some cute and fluffy animals to meet, a marvelous magic show, Easter races, arts and crafts, trails to explore and (of course) a chocolate treat!

Be they fluffy or feathered, our brilliant band of adorable animals will be looking forward to meeting you…and who knows, you may even get a cuddle! Different animals will join us each day, so you might meet guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, ferrets and even ponies.

Watch in wonder as ‘The Totally Amazing Magic Show’ preforms mind blowing tricks and insane illusions before you very eyes! Follow the bubbles to find Carl the Bubble Man, who will be joining us for four days of pop-tastic bubbly fun! Plus, there will be face painting to add even more fun to the day.

Easter races will be running all day, come and and try your best at egg and spoon, wheelbarrow and sack races. And you’ll not leave empty handed, our Visitor Experience Team will have a small chocolate treat for you as you leave.

This event is suitable for children up to the age of eight.

Please note there is an £8 all day car parking charge if you are parking in Holkham Park. We are expecting the park to be busy this weekend, so ALL traffic to Holkham Park and events must enter via the South Gates. Please follow AA directional signage. Other gates will not be accessible to cars.
