Easter at Maan Farms
Last year there were two different events at Maan Farms. The Baby Animal Easter (BAE) event was for children and young families. The Bunnies & Booze event, on the other hand, was for adults only. Both events happen again in 2023, plus a third one that involves pancakes!
Below you’ll find details about the Baby Animal Easter event, the Pancake Breakfast and Bunnies & Booze.
Baby Animal Easter (BAE)
Baby Animal Easter is an interactive event at Maan Farms that features a variety of kid-friendly activities. Guests can hang out with a variety of different baby farm animals including bunnies, calves, ducklings, lambs, pigs and chicks. Tickets include an activity booklet with a scavenger hunt. Children can also collect Easter eggs at different stations on-site and meet the Easter Bunny.
As usual with events at Maan Farms, tickets to Baby Animal Easter Days include admission to the Barnyard Adventureland as well, which is a great play area for kids. At the Barnyard Adventureland there is a zipline, pedal go karts, a jumping pillow, slides, play structures and farm animals to see.
Food isn’t included in the cost of general admission to the Baby Animal Easter event, but there are treats for sale at the farm. Egg-cellent ice cream, rice krispy treats, mini donuts, pies, samosas and butter chicken are typical items at the Maan Farms Country Kitchen this time of year. Complimentary treats do, however, come with VIP passes.

The Easter Pancake Breakfast
New for 2023, Maan Farms hosts a pancake breakfast with the Easter Bunny. It happens between 9:00 am and 10:30 am the four days of the Easter Long Weekend of April 7th to 10th. At the breakfast guests can meet the Easter Bunny. They also get to enjoy pancakes, strawberries, whipped cream and sausages. Admission to this activity also includes your choice of tea, coffee or hot chocolate.
Admission for the breakfast costs $16 (plus taxes and fees) if paid for in advance online, or $18 on the day at the gate. Children ages 2 and under are free (but they also don’t get their own plate of pancakes or cup of hot chocolate). People wanting to also join the Baby Animal Easter event after breakfast have to book and pay for that separately. Breakfast can be booked for 9:00, 9:30 and 10:00 am starting times on each of the four days.

Bunnies & Booze (April 1st, 2023)
Bunnies & Booze is an Easter-themed event at Maan Farms for folks ages 19 and above. The event runs for just one day, on the Saturday before the long weekend, so on April 1st in 2023. At the event guests receive a delicious dinner with their choice of wine or beer. There are also several fun games after the meal.
After dinner and the games, when dusk arrives, everyone goes outside for the adults-only Easter egg hunt. There are various prizes to be won including a grand prize (which last year was a case of wine)! Everyone is asked to bring their own baskets and flashlights for the hunt.
For tickets to the adults-only event at Maan Farms, click Bunnies & Booze.
Bunnies & Booze Admission & Hours
In 2023, Bunnies & Booze takes place on the Saturday of April 1st. The event runs from 5:00 pm until “late”. Last year most participants left soon after the Easter egg hunt which finished at around 8:30 pm. A few people stayed longer though, up until about 10:00 pm.
Tickets in 2023 cost $79 each, which is the same as last year. (Taxes and online service fees are extra.) Admission includes dinner with appetizers, one main dish and one glass of wine or beer. Also included is the egg hunt and prizes.
Appetizers in 2023 include a veggie samosa and pakoras (both of which are delicious). The main course is either a naan taco or poutine with your choice of butter chicken, chickpea curry, or shahi paneer (the last of which is a creamy curry and where paneer is a type of cheese).
