Spring Eggsplorers
Hunt, solve and explore! Set off on an egg-citing adventure around the museum and gardens this Easter and solve the mystery of the missing egg.
Open days over the Easter Holidays from Saturday 28 March – Sunday 19 April 2026.
Pick up your trail sheet and follow the clues left by a mysterious visitor called Crackers as you explore the galleries. Lift the flaps at investigation points to examine footprints, feathers and food, and record secret codes to discover which animal left a lost egg behind.
After solving the mystery indoors, head to Quex Gardens to continue the adventure on our wicker egg trail through the Woodland Walk and Victorian Walled Garden.
This event and activities are included with your standard admission ticket, and there’s no need to book a separate event ticket – simply choose your preferred date and book your tickets!
