The BIGGEST Easter Egg Hunt in Dallas
Hilton Anatole
2201 N Stemmons Fwy
Dallas, TX 75207
Get ready for an egg-citing adventure at the biggest Easter Egg Hunt in Downtown Dallas, happening on Saturday, April 19th, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Hilton Anatole! This family-friendly event promises an unforgettable day filled with fun, excitement, and plenty of surprises for all ages.
Last year, my son was determined to find one of the coveted Golden Eggs. He had a plan—zigzagging through the crowd, skipping the obvious eggs, and focusing only on the best hiding spots. After 15 minutes of serious searching, he came up empty-handed. Just as he was about to give up, another child ran over and handed him a Golden Egg they had found but didn’t need. The look of pure joy (and disbelief) on my son’s face was priceless! He didn’t even care about the prize inside—he just couldn’t believe someone would share such a big win with him. That moment turned out to be one of my favorite Easter memories, a reminder that kindness can be just as exciting as winning.
The event features timed Easter egg hunts organized by age group, ensuring everyone gets a chance to join in the fun. Kids can enjoy face painting, meet the balloon artist, and even visit with the Easter Bunny! Plus, there will be delicious snacks and beverages available for both kids and adults.
Admission Details:
- Adults: Free
- Kids: $12 (includes access to the egg hunt, face painting, petting zoo, and balloon artist)
But that’s not all! Five Golden Eggs will be hidden throughout the event, each containing a special prize! You could win an overnight stay in the luxurious Family Suite for a Camp Anatole experience, a family weekend pass with access to Topgolf Swing Suite and JadeWaters, or a curated cabana weekend at the Hilton Anatole!

Corinth, TX, 76208

The event, designed to create a calm and welcoming environment, ensures that every child can enjoy the excitement of an Easter egg hunt without the overstimulation of large crowds.
A friend of mine has a son with autism, and big events can be overwhelming for him. Last year, she decided to try the Sensory Friendly Egg-Streme Easter Hunt at Corinth Community Park. She told me that for the first time, he was able to enjoy an egg hunt without feeling overstimulated. “He wasn’t rushed, he wasn’t panicked—he was just happy,” she said. He took his time, picking up eggs at his own pace, and even stopped to admire the colors. It was a beautiful reminder that Easter celebrations should be fun for all kids, and this event made that possible for her family.
Taking place at Corinth Community Park, this inclusive event offers a variety of fun activities, including the Sensory-Friendly Easter Egg Hunt, a petting zoo, food trucks, local vendors, and plenty of games for all ages. Families can also enjoy pony rides, photos with the Easter Bunny, bounce houses, and train rides.

Instead, incorporate something new into the activity-and think of the perfect excuse to set-up some cute new Easter baskets-by taking a more distinctive approach. If you’re searching for some new Easter egg hunting ideas to try out, then you’ve come to the right spot. With these creative Easter egg hunt ideas for kids, families, and grown ups, you can come up with Easter games perfect for your family.

Perfect Patterns Egg Hunting – Try asking kids to look for certain egg patterns within the game. This can be very educational too.
