The BEST list of all the Easter Egg Hunts in Minnesota!
It’s time once again for the annual list of Minnesota Easter Egg Hunts 2023 and events!
For each of the hunts below, click on the city name for further information and find out details, some require advance registration.
We have tried to include as many FREE hunts in Minnesota on the list that we could find, but found some that have an admission and we noted that (those are marked by an asterisk).
The MN egg hunt list is alphabetized by the town name so be sure to check the date and times. You’ll find Twin Cities Easter Egg Hunts as well as Easter Egg Hunts in greater Minnesota.
We’ve also included Easter events that don’t necessarily have an egg hunt component (bunny visits, etc.).
We’ve tried to include as many as we can but please leave a comment or email us at chrysa @ thriftyminnesota . com if you know of any we missed that you feel we should include.
Don’t forget to FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK for more fun family events in Minnesota!
