The City of Carlsbad’s popular EGGstravaganza Spring Festival returns. This annual spring event features Carlsbad’s largest egg hunt, an ongoing egg scramble where kids race to collect candy-filled eggs. Don't forget to bring your basket! Face-painting, crafts, cookie decorating, a fun zone, soak the bunny and more. Food and beverages are available for purchase. Activity cards and wristbands can be purchased in advance or at the event to enjoy the activities and fun zone. No registration is needed to attend this event. How the egg scramble works The egg scramble is ongoing from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. or until eggs run out. To keep the scramble fun for all ages, one field will be designated for children ages 6 and over who want to race for their eggs, and an identical one will be for children ages 5 and under. There is also a noncompetitive field for young children, children with special needs, and for families wanting to pose for a photo opportunity. An activity card is required to participate in the egg scramble. To avoid lines during the event, $8 activity cards and $8 unlimited inflatables wristbands can be purchased three weeks in advance at city community centers. The cards can be divided among multiple children for all the activities; however, wristbands are per person. Both can be purchased at these locations Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.: Calavera Hills Community Center, 2997 Glasgow Drive Stagecoach Community Center, 3420 Camino de los Coches Alga Norte Aquatics Center, 6565 Alicante Road Pine Avenue Community Center, 3209 Harding St. Event may modify or cancel due to inclement weather.
