THINGS TO DO THIS EASTER 2024 IN BALI
1. Take your bunnies to the beach!
Nothing says Easter in Bali quite like a day on the beach. Settle in beneath a sun-lounger, order fresh coconuts and feast all day on fresh seafood. Our top tip? Head to a beach where Easter festivities are taking place. Psst… at some of the family friendly beach clubs, there might be a special Easter menu for you and the family, plus live entertainment and kids activities, too!
2. Join the Mumu & Friends Tea Party
For families who enjoy the finer things in life, bring the kids to the award-winning Mulia Bali for an elegant Mumu & Friends Tea Party on Easter Sunday. As the kids (aged 3 to 12 years) sip on tea from their own fine china, they’ll be occupied with activities galore – from storytelling, magic shows and photo ops, to cookie decorating, arts and crafts, and egg hunts too! And did we mention, there will be a colourful piñata too?
3. Eat, party, repeat at this Easter Festival

6. Spend the weekend poolside
At the island’s best resorts, the Easter celebrations are taking place throughout the entire long weekend. From Good Friday to Easter Sunday, treat the whole family to a tropical getaway with special Easter stay packages – think grazing by the pool, egg painting, and even a special appearance from the Easter Bunny!
7. Hunt for eggs
You can bet your Easter eggs that at almost every hotel in Bali that’s celebrating Easter 2024, you’ll find a chocolate-filled Easter egg hunt. And if you don’t feel like heading out after your big Easter brunch? Hide chocolates around your hotel or villa instead and leave clues on where to find them. And psst – this one’s not just for kids!
8. Get crafty
This one’s a must-do Easter activity. Whether you join an Easter workshop or you stock up on essential arts and craft supplies, get busy this Easter! The kids can paint Easter bunnies, decorate eggs, fold origami chicks and even make cute cards for friends and family. And as for Mum and Dad? Well, you may as well get stuck in too…
9. Get baking
Easter is the perfect excuse to scoff cakes, chocolates and cookies all day, so we say get baking and make some fresh-outta-the-oven cookies!
