We’re super ‘egg-cited’ about our Easter offer this year! The Big Museum Easter Trail AT HOME – a new online digital event for Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales – is jam-packed with activities, bakes and makes for all the family!

There’s so much to do to make your easter ‘eggstra’ special including: 

- Hints and tips on how to create an Easter trail

- Decorate Easter egg templates ready for your Easter  trail

- Make an Easter basket

- Crack the password to unlock your Easter activity pack full of egg-cellent craft activities

- Bake and decorate some tasty Easter biscuits

- Dye eggs with things already in your kitchen

- Learn about how people in Wales used to celebrate Easter

This new digital event comes hot on the heels of the popular ‘dino-sleepovers’, ‘museum lates’ and other online digital events the museum has been running all through the lockdown period to enable people to continue to enjoy the museum’s activities, as Events Manager Mared Maggs explained:

“We’ve been delighted with the response to our new digital events programme over the past year. We’ve been able to reach over 100,000 global online visitors through projects such as our digital Science and Food Festivals, Diwali celebrations, Lambcam and Sleepover@ Home programme. Providing opportunities for continued engagement with our Museum and collections whilst our doors have been closed has been a priority and we hope that our online events have helped support the wellbeing of our audiences and inspired creativity through this difficult year.”

Tickets for the Easter event cost just £2 + booking fee for the whole family and you can enjoy the event at your own pace once signed up.  Tickets are selling fast, so don’t delay – book your ticket today at :
