Easter Sunday 2026 falls on April 5, making it a prime spring weekend for families across Southwest Ontario. Whether you're looking for a big farm experience, a free community scramble at the local park, or something a little different (hello, dog egg hunt), London and the surrounding region have options for every age and budget.
Below we've broken down the key decisions to help you pick the right event for your family.
If you want a full-day outing with lots of activities beyond the egg hunt itself, Kustermans Easter Festival is the standout option. The farm opens from late March, runs both Easter weekends, and includes wagon rides, an Egg House, cookie decorating, and s'mores. Budget roughly $20–$24 per person (babies under 24 months are free), and book online to save a few dollars per ticket.
Storybook Gardens sits between the two extremes — it's a ticketed experience ($6.20 per child, adults free) inside London's beloved fairy-tale park on the banks of the Thames River. It runs across the full Easter long weekend with two daily timeslots, so there's flexibility. Under-3s have their own egg hunt area in Storybook Valley, while bigger kids explore the full grounds.
If budget is the priority, both Woodstock Easter Egg Hunt and Ingersoll Rotary Club Easter Egg Hunt are completely free. They run on Easter Saturday (April 4) and are well-organized community events with age groups, chocolate bunnies, and Easter Bunny visits. They're worth the short drive from London.
Easter Sunday 2026 is April 5. Good Friday is April 3 and Easter Monday is April 6. Most egg hunt events take place on Easter Saturday (April 4), with some running all four days of the long weekend.
Yes — while Storybook Gardens and Kustermans Farm charge admission, several nearby events are completely free. The Woodstock Easter Egg Hunt at Victoria Park (ages 2–11) and the Ingersoll Rotary Club Easter Egg Hunt (ages 2–10, with a free chocolate bunny for every child) are both free community events on April 4.
Most events welcome children aged 2–12. Storybook Gardens has a dedicated toddler zone for under-3s. Ingersoll separates children into three age bands (2–4, 5–7, 8–10) to keep the hunt fair. Kustermans is suitable for all ages — children under 24 months enter free.
Kustermans and Storybook Gardens recommend booking online ahead of time — time slots sell out, and online booking is cheaper. The free community hunts in Woodstock and Ingersoll are walk-in with no registration needed.
