Fox Rent A Car presents you with some cool Easter Events 2010. Why not take a short vacation and chase the bunny in a different (warmer) part of the country or go egg hunting in the desert this year? Read about the coolest Easter events in Burbank, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Oakland and Phoenix.
Not only is Easter one of the most important religious festivals, it is also a time for fun and frolic. Easter parades, egg hunts, egg rolling and painting are all part of the festivities, not to forget the Easter bunny with all the candies that we can eat. Celebrating Easter can be even more fun when you can get away from home and drive to another town and celebrate Easter with your family amidst all the events that are talking place. Check out some of the Easter events that are happening this year in some towns.
Burbank Easter Events
You could celebrate your Easter with a scrumptious brunch or dinner with the family and then move on to get some photos clicked with the Easter Bunny at the Burbank Town Center. The Spring Egg-Stravaganza has been planned for April 3rd at McCambridge Park. Scheduled between 9am to 11am, the event will have games, prizes, candies and a lot more ‘eggy’ fun that you can imagine. You obviously do not want to miss the egg hunt organized for different ages here!
Las Vegas Easter Events
You could enjoy carnival games for all ages at the Mirabelli Community Center at Hargrove Avenue on March 26th in the Family Flashlight Easter Egg Activity Night.
