San Antonio is gearing up for an Easter weekend packed with activities that are sure to cater to families, friends, and chocolate enthusiasts alike. With Easter Sunday falling on April 9 and Good Friday just two days before, the city has lined up a host of egg hunts, brunch options, and unique celebrations to suit all tastes and ages.

According to KENS 5, the Tower of the Americas is hosting its 'Easter Eggs-travaganza Celebration' for a mere $5 per person, while Brackenridge Park rings in its 125th year with a free event. For those with little ones, the San Antonio Zoo's 'Go Wild!' egg hunt is included with standard admission and offers a free day out for members; festivities there start at 11 a.m. on March 30, teeming with public egg hunts for children up to 10 years old, followed by an opportunity to play pickleball with the Easter Bunny. Now if you thought Easter was just about painting eggs and awkward family photos, think again because the city's ready to disrupt your usual festive lineup.

As listed by Visit San Antonio, a wealth of other communal events, all free of charge, are expected to grace the holiday weekend — from an 'Underwater Egg Hunt' at the San Antonio Natatorium to the egg-cellent 'Helicopter Egg Drop' courtesy of LCM Northwest & Bexar County Sheriff's Office. Not to be outdone, the Great Northwest Community Improvement Association, Inc. is celebrating its 30th Annual Easter Egg Hunt.

For those aiming for something a little different, The Good Kind offers an 'Easter Sunday Funday' with brunch specials available for purchase, proving once again that Easter is not just for the kiddies but for anyone willing to embrace the spirit of spring's renewal and maybe a mimosa or two. Moreover, true to Texas form, even the parking lot becomes a festive venue with Trader's Village throwing an 'Easter Eggstravaganza' where parking will set you back just $6, now, isn't that just a steal compared to the typical nightmare rates we're used to in downtown areas; it's a total basket case of bargain festivities.

San Antonio's Easter lineup is a testament to the city's commitment to inclusive and varied holiday experiences, ensuring that whether you're in town to visit family, here on vacation, or a local looking to partake in the holiday merriment, there's something to fill your weekend with joy — and probably a fair amount of chocolate too.
