Hemel Hempstead BID Announces Fun-Filled Easter Bunny Trail for Families This Spring

Hemel Hempstead Business Improvement District (BID) is excited to launch this year’s Easter Bunny Trail, a fun, free, family-friendly event designed to bring colour, creativity, and community spirit to the town centre during the Easter holidays.

Launching on 28th March and running until 12th April, the Easter Bunny Trail encourages families to explore the town centre while searching for the names of 10 decorated bunnies. The bunnies, created by local school children, will be hidden in the windows of participating shops, offering a playful and creative way to get outdoors during the holiday.

“We’re thrilled to bring back the Easter Trail as a way to encourage families to come into town, enjoy time together, and support our wonderful local businesses. It’s a fun activity for all ages and a great opportunity to showcase everything our town centre has to offer. We love working with local schools and businesses to create events that bring our community together.” Said Hemel Hempstead BID.

Trail maps will be available to pick up from Riverside Shopping Centre (pedestrian entrance to the car park – next to Starbucks). Once families find the names of all ten Easter bunnies, they can submit their completed trail sheet in the post box at Riverside.
