Easter breaks you’ll never forget

Fresh, vibrant, and wonderfully diverse, Easter is celebrated around the world in ways that go far beyond chocolate eggs and pastel décor. As spring arrives in many destinations - and autumn in others - the holiday becomes a canvas for local culture, creativity, and seasonal joy.

From Australia’s playful Easter Hat Parades and bilby‑themed treats, to Cape Town’s traditional pickled fish feasts and historic egg hunts, communities reinvent Easter in ways that feel both meaningful and memorable.

Across Asia, where Easter isn’t traditionally observed, travellers can embrace the season differently, through cherry‑blossom picnics in Tokyo’s parks or hands‑on creative workshops in Bangkok.

Explore how five destinations bring their own flair to Easter 2026.

Combined with warm autumn weather and vibrant outdoor events, Easter in Sydney feels festive, meaningful, and unmistakably distinctive.

Tokyo, Japan

Easter in Tokyo blends springtime charm with a touch of fun. As the cherry blossoms reach full bloom from late March to early April, locals and visitors flock to parks like Shinjuku Gyoen and Yoyogi Park, two of the city’s most beloved hanami spots, ideal for relaxed picnics and even family‑friendly Easter egg hunts beneath the sakura canopy. While Easter isn’t traditionally celebrated in Japan, it thrives in a playful form at theme parks, especially Tokyo Disney Resort, where seasonal shows, parades, and vibrant decorations bring a distinctly kawaii twist to the holiday.

Cape Town, South Africa

Easter in Cape Town blends vibrant tradition with the city’s relaxed coastal charm. Many families honour a cherished Cape Malay custom by preparing marinated pickled fish for Good Friday, typically snoek or hake simmered in vinegar, onions, and warm curry spices, then enjoyed cold, often paired with freshly baked hot cross buns. This beloved dish has been passed down through generations and remains a cornerstone of the holiday. As the long weekend continues, Cape Town’s beaches come alive with families gathering for a laid‑back braai (barbeque) by the sea, celebrating Easter with food, community, and ocean views.
