NOTE: Due to the forecasted rain, we are switching gears and transforming EGGstravaganza into a drive-through event. Hop on by with your basket between 10 a.m. and Noon at Poinsettia Park and we will pass out eggs and treats right through your car window, ensuring you stay dry! Our bunny can’t wait to meet you and make your day egg-stra special. Join us for the City of Carlsbad’s EGGstravaganza event on Saturday, March 30 at Poinsettia Community Park. The event features face-painting, crafts and an egg scramble where kids race to collect candy-filled eggs. No registration is required to attend. 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. No registration is needed to attend. To avoid lines during the event, $5 activity cards and $5 unlimited fun zone wrist bands can be purchased 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. For more information visit: carlsbadca.gov
