Spring has sprung and Goodyear is not holding back when it comes to celebrating the season, as they get ready to combine traditional Easter fun with a twist of adult refreshment. According to an announcement on the Goodyear official website, the Hop & Hops Easter Festival is set up at the Goodyear Recreation Campus on March 29, giving the community an event that promises to be anything but your average egg hunt.
The evening, which runs from 5 to 8 p.m., is expected to be chock-full of activities that aim to cater to everyone. Kids can expect to scramble for more than 100,000 eggs filled with toys and candy, while adults can enjoy a sip of some local brew courtesy of Saddle Mountain Brewing Company in the beer garden. Food trucks will also be on-site, ensuring that event-goers can grab a bite to eat amidst the Easter-themed chaos.
"Whether you're there for the Peep or Treat Village or to bounce around in the inflatable houses, there's a bit of something for every family member," the city's website details. With face painters and popular characters like Rapunzel and Spider-Man swinging by for photos, the event acts as a perfect backdrop for family memories and Instagram-worthy snaps.
For those looking to take a breather from the egg-citement, the campus will have Peter Rabbit 2 displayed on a large LED screen for public viewing. This is a prime opportunity to lay back, nurse a craft beer, and enjoy some downtime as the kids catch up with the on-screen antics of their favorite lagomorph.

Whether it's frolicking in the fun-for-all-ages festival or just unwinding with a pint and a flick, Goodyear's Hop & Hops event seems set to ring in spring with a hop, skip, and a jump-start.
