Theme Park Easter Activities
Magic Kingdom
Easter Bunny Meet & Greet – Every Easter, the Easter Bunny and his wife, Mrs. Bunny, visit the Walt Disney World Resort for some rest and relaxation in the days leading up to the annual holiday basket delivery. The Bunnies, who have spent most of the year painting eggs and stocking up on jelly beans, will spend their Disney Parks vacation meeting and greeting families at the Magic Kingdom. Mr. Easter Bunny will be available at Bunny Lane Garden (at the Town Square Courtyard between City Hall and Chamber of Commerce on the left side of Main Street when entering the park) to meet & greet with guests. PhotoPass photographers will be on hand to take pictures. They are typically only available to greet Guests for a few days just prior to Easter.

Typically, the parade includes butterflies, flowers and dancing hippos, Daisy Duck, and Thumper & Ms. Bunny. There is also White Rabbit, Rabbit, Clara Cluck, Ostriches, Dancing Chicks for this procession down Main Street, U.S.A. Spring Trolley Show – The citizens of Main Street, U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom are bursting with excitement now that spring is in the air. Dressed to the nines in bright pastels, they arrive in town on a horse-drawn trolley adorned with colorful bouquets of flowers and ribbons. This procession typically only happens the weekend of Easter.
The MouseForLess Tip: When making your vacation plans, plan on arriving at the Magic Kingdom early. This is especially true for the days the week prior to Easter, as the park is often extremely busy.
EPCOT
