With the autumn breeze rolling in and the long weekend on the horizon, Easter 2026 is shaping up to be one for the books. Whether you’re a local or just visiting for the school holidays, Sydney is buzzing with activities that go way beyond just chocolate eggs.
If you’re wondering what’s on in Sydney this Easter, we’ve rounded up the must-visit events that will keep the whole family entertained.
1. The Sydney Royal Easter Show (April 2 – April 13, 2026)
It wouldn’t be Easter in Sydney without a trip to the Olympic Park for the Sydney Royal Easter Show. This iconic event remains Australia’s largest annual ticketed event, and for good reason.
From the legendary Showbag Pavilion (get in early for the Bertie Beetle bags!) to the high-adrenaline carnival rides, there’s a reason this is a seasonal staple. Don’t miss the animal nursery where you can cuddle a chick or a lamb, and make sure to stay for the evening fireworks at ENGIE Stadium.
Pro Tip: Look for “After 4 pm” tickets to save a bit of cash while still catching the best of the nighttime entertainment.
2. Sydney Family Show at the Entertainment Quarter (April 2 – April 19, 2026)
For a slightly more relaxed (but equally fun) vibe, head over to Moore Park. The Sydney Family Show at the Entertainment Quarter is a fantastic alternative for those who want the “show” experience without the massive crowds at Olympic Park.
This year features a bunny hopping competition, motorcycle stunt shows, and a massive Easter Egg Hunt. It’s perfectly located near the EQ markets, making it a great spot to grab some artisan treats while the kids hit the rides.
3. Easter Egg Hunt on the Bridge (April 3 – April 6, 2026)
Looking for an “elevated” experience? BridgeClimb Sydney is bringing back its iconic Easter Egg Hunt. For the long weekend only, climbers (ages 8 and up) can spot hidden graphical eggs along the Summit route while taking in the best views of the Harbour.
Even better? The Easter Bunny will be making special appearances at the Summit for climbs departing before 10 am. It’s arguably the most unique photo op in the city this April.
