The weekend of April 19th, 20th, and 21st, 2025, Paris will be adorned with festivities to celebrate Easter. If you're looking for original activities to celebrate this traditional holiday, the capital offers a wealth of unusual options.
Of course, the unmissable experience of this holiday is the Easter egg hunt, and as every year, in the City of Light, you have plenty of choices!
For an egg hunt on the water, some Parisian boat companies offer egg hunts directly aboard their vessels, followed by a one-hour cruise on the Seine. On Sunday, April 20th, 2025, the Vedettes du Pont Neuf invite you to experience this festive adventure in the heart of Paris. A perfect program for families, combining adventure, discovery, and sweet treats, set in the iconic surroundings of the capital.
But Paris also offers more traditional egg hunts on solid ground. The Paris Zoological Park, also known as the Vincennes Zoo, welcomes families for a large Easter egg hunt on Sunday, April 20th, and Monday, April 21st, 2025. In addition to this hunt, there will be fun activities and a decorated egg competition, offering a delightful day with the animals. Creative egg decoration workshops, an exhibition, a chocolate sales stand, and an egg hunt are also planned for the enjoyment of young and old alike.
Finally, to combine fun and solidarity, don't miss the traditional egg hunt organized by the Secours Populaire of Paris at the Parc des Buttes-Chaumont. Scheduled for Sunday, April 20th, 2025, this charitable egg hunt will bring together over 200 volunteers to animate this day in the spirit of solidarity and mutual aid. Children can purchase an 8€ hunting permit to take part in this wonderful initiative.
Whether you prefer to hunt eggs on the water, in a zoo, in a quirky village, or in a charitable setting, Paris offers a multitude of activities to celebrate Easter with family!
The entire team at the Hotel Moderniste wishes you a wonderful holiday season!
