A Wild Easter Weekend Awaits at Gauteng’s Top Wildlife Parks
This Easter weekend, two of Gauteng’s most loved wildlife destinations, Lion & Safari Park and the Bothongo Rhino & Lion Nature Reserve, are transforming into vibrant family playgrounds, offering visitors an unforgettable mix of wildlife, entertainment and festive fun.
From 3 – 5 April, guests can expect a lively atmosphere filled with interactive kids’ activities, exciting competitions and the chance to experience some of South Africa’s most iconic wildlife up close.
Designed with families in mind, both parks will host a range of Easter-themed activities to keep younger visitors entertained throughout the day. These include face painting, balloon sculpting, colouring stations, and a special appearance from the Easter Bunny, who will be handing out Easter eggs to delighted children.
Beyond the festivities, visitors will also have the opportunity to take part in a social media competition running across the long weekend. Guests who visit either park between 3–5 April can snap a photo at the on-site selfie frame, share it on Instagram and tag the park to stand a chance of winning unforgettable wildlife experiences.
At Lion & Safari Park, one lucky winner will walk away with the ultimate adventure package for two valued at over R6,000! This includes a sunset safari experience with a picnic setup, a snack board and a bottle of sparking wine, a quad bike experience, a horseback safari and a R1000 food voucher.
