This year, in the middle of spring break 2025, Easter weekend falls on Saturday April 19, Sunday April 20 and Monday April 21, 2025.
Easter egg hunts are a long-established tradition in France, particularly in Paris and the Île-de-France region, where numerous events are organized to celebrate this springtime holiday. Historically, the egg symbolizes life and renewal. In Christian tradition, eggs were forbidden during Lent. Eggs laid during this period were preserved, decorated and offered at Easter. The custom of hiding eggs in gardens dates back to the XVIIIᵉ century, becoming a fun activity for children over time that later gave rise to our famous egg hunts!
Every year, the Paris region offers a multitude of egg hunts for families, particularly in the Yvelines department, near Maisons-Laffitte, where the Tourist Office is offering several events for Easter 2025.
