The public is invited to come celebrate spring at the Third Annual Free Community Easter Egg Hunt and Costume Parade in Memory Grove Park in Salt Lake Cityon Saturday April 4th at 11:00 a.m.

Fair warning: things move quickly — and that's half the fun. The egg hunt kicks off at exactly 11:15 AM, and baskets fill up fast. Plan to arrive early so you don't miss a single moment. Hunts are organized by age group, so every child gets a fair shot at the good stuff:

🥚 Pre-K & Kindergarten

🥚 1st–3rd Grade

🥚 4th–6th Grade

🥚 Older Ages

Once the last egg is claimed, we head straight into the Costume Parade and Contest! Show off your most creative, colorful, and egg-citing look as you stroll through the park. Families, friends, and furry companions are all welcome to join the parade, and prizes will be awarded to the most imaginative outfits.

Between the excitement, take time to explore the park's rich history with free public tours of Memory Grove's monuments, Memorial House, and the Meditation Chapel. There's so much to discover right in our own backyard.

All are welcome — just don't be late. The fun starts at 11:15 AM sharp, and it waits for no one!
