Hop along to Rippon Lea Estate this Easter.

Easter Day at Rippon Lea Estate will be packed with fun – explore the Maker’s Market from Rose St. on the main lawn, join The Great Rippon Lea Egg & Spoon Race, and let the kids enjoy pony rides. Plus, expect a visit from the Easter Bunny!

Pack a picnic to enjoy on sprawling lawns and around majestic gardens, and wander the Mansion with openings from 11am to 12.30pm and 1pm to 2.30pm.

The Egg & Spoon race will take place at 11am, 12pm and 2pm – spots are limited and we encourage you to register in advance. Children 5-16 years of age can enter the Egg & Spoon Race and will be given a spoon and miniature chocolate egg to race with. Each race will be divided into age groups to give everyone a fair go with prizes up for grabs.

Entry to the Estate on this day is by gold coin per person. Pony rides are $10 per ride
