Join Us for an Egg-citing Easter Celebration!

Looking for the perfect way to celebrate Easter with your family? Don’t miss the Royal Hobart Hospital Research Foundation’s annual Easter Egg Hunt – a day full of fun, laughter and plenty of Easter eggs!

This year’s event will take place on the beautiful Government House Lawns, where children can follow exciting clues to uncover their very own bag of Easter eggs.

The fun kicks off at 10:00 AM and runs until 2:00 PM! Staggered entry times are in place—select your preferred session (10:00 AM, 11:00 AM, or 12:00 PM) when booking and ensure you arrive at your allocated time. Once inside, you’re welcome to stay and enjoy the festivities until the event concludes at 2:00 PM.

More Than Just an Egg Hunt!

The fun doesn’t stop at the hunt! Enjoy face painting, balloons, live entertainment, delicious food, coffee and lawn games throughout the day. Plus, keep an eye out for a special visit from our eggs-traordinary guest of honour – The Easter Bunny! Bring a picnic and soak up the festive atmosphere.
