This Easter, bring the family to Newquay Zoo for a magical adventure! Meet the hilarious Easter Hare for an incredible storytelling session to uncover the real story behind the Easter bunny (spoiler: it’s actually an ‘egg-laying’ hare!) which will have the whole family in stitches. Storytelling sessions will take place on The Pavilion lawn at 1:30pm and 3:30pm on these select dates only: 10th / 11th / 13th / 14th / 17th / 18th / 19th / 20th / 21st April.
Is it even a day out if there’s no ice cream? Café Lemur is serving up family favourites, from hearty breakfast baps to delicious lunches – plus a special homemade Scotch egg, freshly made for Easter (egg-citing, right?). For a picnic-perfect feast, Tippy’s Takeaway has tasty grab-and-go options to enjoy on the lawn or in the Secret Garden. And don’t forget to hop over to Ices for scoops of dreamy ice cream and other sweet treats. Bringing your own picnic? You’re welcome to nestle down in our outdoor seating areas and enjoy a bite in the spring sunshine!
Plus! Visit our native nature activity hub in the Bird Hide, where you can enjoy fun self-guided activities like colouring and puzzles – all inspired by the amazing wildlife that thrives in spring at our zoo. It’s a lovely, peaceful spot to unwind, watch our vasa parrots swoop overhead, and discover more about the incredible native species found right here in Cornwall.
