Smithills Open Farm in Bolton, Greater Manchester, has announced it will host an Easter egg hunt for local families this April 2026. The event is part of a spring programme at the 70-acre site designed to provide seasonal activities for children during the school holidays.
The farm is a family-run business located in Smithills Country Park and is managed by the Grimshaw family. Visitors attending the spring events can expect to see newborn animals including lambs, goats, and alpacas alongside the organised egg hunts.
Residents should expect more people and vehicles in the area north of the town while the activities are running. The farm typically sees an increase in visitor numbers during peak holiday periods which can lead to busier roads nearby.
Information about the Easter Egg Hunt 2026 has been officially listed on the Smithills Open Farm website. This event follows the farm’s tradition of hosting interactive animal experiences and tractor rides for the local community.
