*** I will be updating the list for the details every now and then so feel free to check it again. First published March 27, 2017***
Easter is one meaningful celebration for Catholics around the world. As I’ve mentioned from my last years articles (on the things you can put inside an Easter egg if you want a DIY Easter egg hunt at home and our own Easter experience with our little girl), Easter is a very important event in our religious life. For many, Holy Week is Easter are spent with family- either on vacation out of the country or out of town or some (like us) choose to stay in our homes and of course, we do our tradition – the Visita Iglesia.
After all the top picks and list we shared with you from Halloween parties to Christmas staycation places and to all our other favorites, here’s sharing our favorite Easter events and deals. In our search for good ones, we’ve encountered several that got shortlisted. Enjoy and share away!
You may also choose to go to those Easter events your family organized or you may start one yourself. We celebrate Christmas as one family, so why not celebrate this meaningful Easter event with our loved ones too!
