Are you ready for an egg-stravaganza of Easter fun at Drusillas? Enjoy all your favourite zooper activities, plus an egg-stra special Easter Egg Trail, and the chance to meet two sets of adorable new animal twins: baby binturongs Sabang and Bunga, and two tiny pygmy marmosets.
There’s no need to book in advance for the Easter Egg Trail at this much-loved Sussex attraction, and best of all, there’s no extra charge for this cracking activity. Running throughout the holidays, visitors can simply download the Drusillas Park App and join the Easter Egg Hunt while exploring our interactive zoo so hop to it.
Your Drusillas experience wouldn’t be complete without getting nose-to-nose with over 80 species of animals in the zoo. Don’t miss our adorable new arrivals: 3-month-old binlet twins Sabang and Bunga, who you’ll find snuggled up with mum, Dora and big sister Boots in the binturong habitat. Plus, our teeniest new babies: dinky pygmy marmoset twins, who are both not much bigger than your thumb, which you can spot in the sloth habitat in our upper zoo area.
Enjoy a day out for less by taking advantage of Drusillas fabulous ‘Kids for a Quid’ Offer from Saturday 28th March – Sunday 12th April.

But that’s not all. The fun doesn’t stop there. Dive into our super splash pad, Get Wet., reopening for the spring/summer season, let loose in our indoor and outdoor adventure playgrounds, and enjoy unlimited access to seven family-friendly rides. You can also tiptoe among prehistoric giants, immerse yourself in the SPARK sensory play experience, and discover so much more – there’s something for everyone to enjoy:
Get Wet. Splash Pad: Easter marks the reopening of Drusillas’ super splash pad, so don’t forget your swimmers, ready to dive into the fun with water jets, ground geysers, swirling streams and spiralling sprays – it’s the ultimate splash pad adventure. While the kids are letting loose, it’s the perfect time to grab a coffee and refuel.
Interactive Zoo: Drusillas’ family-friendly zoo offers little (and big) ones a wonderfully engaging animal experience, where the focus is always on ‘fun finding out’. Take part in free animal spotting activities or test your strength against animal friends in the Zoolympics. And, for a magical close-up experience, take a wander among inquisitive lemurs, hang out with the sloths and bats, or feed the lorikeets in our 3 exciting walkthrough habitats.
Unlimited Family-Friendly Rides: The park’s popular family rides will be open, with visitors offered unlimited rides on the Safari Express Train, Rainforest Carousel, Flying Cheetahs, Amazon Skyrise, Jungle Jeeps, Toucan Twister, and Hippopotobus.

Adventure Play Areas: Drusillas’ huge outdoor and indoor play areas have been custom-designed to be perfect for all ages; Over 5s can ride the safari jeep, climb boulders, clamber across rope bridges, take on the giant hamster wheel, or fly along the zip line. Explorers under 5 can go wild in a dedicated area for smaller ones with colourful jungle walkways, trampolines, roundabouts, and a giant snake slide.
Amazon Adventure Soft Play: If the Great British weather isn’t behaving, the fun doesn’t need to end. Dive inside a jungle-themed soft play with jumbo slides, aerial runway, cannon canyon, netted walkways, spinning poles, anaconda run and all the jumping, climbing and sliding fun. And there’s coffee, lots of coffee.
