Easter 2026 at Brighton & Hove Museums
There’s lots to do for you and your family this Easter at Brighton & Hove Museums.
For the adventurous, keep your eyes peeled in the Royal Pavilion for The Great Dragon Count or explore Preston Manor with an Easter trail and egg hunt. For those who are feeling brave, there’s Jaws n Claws animal handling at Brighton Museum. Or for those who would rather a more relaxing Easter, there’s cosy storytelling and art & crafts.
Whatever takes your fancy, we look forward to welcoming you this Easter.
