Looking for a unique Easter event your kids won’t stop talking about? The 11th Annual Operation Egg Drop is back—and it’s taking egg hunts to a whole new level… literally.
Scheduled for Saturday, April 4, 2026, this exciting event invites families to gather for an unforgettable afternoon filled with thousands of eggs, high-energy fun and a one-of-a-kind egg hunt experience.
A Sky-High Twist on the Classic Egg Hunt
Operation Egg Drop isn’t your typical Easter egg hunt. Instead of eggs being hidden in the grass, many are dropped from above—creating a thrilling, can’t-miss moment for kids as they watch eggs rain down from the sky.
Once the eggs land, children will have the chance to collect as many as they can, making it a fast-paced and exciting experience for all ages. Events like this often features over 60,000 eggs spread across a large field, ensuring there’s plenty of fun to go around.
