The 2nd Annual Spring Fling EGGstravaganza will provide a groovy opportunity for the whole family to enjoy a Hippie-D’ Hoppity day of engaging activities and a little fun in the sun. Free to the public courtesy of the City of Fort Lauderdale’s Beach Improvement District, attendees are encouraged to wear their retro-inspired best and participate in the special activities and entertainment planned, which include:
• Eggs In a Basket Contest | Guests will take their best guess at how many eggs are in The LOOP’s baskets. The person closest to guessing right will win prizes courtesy of the contest sponsor.
• Hippie-D Hoppity Selfie Station | Guests are encouraged to dress up in their retro-inspired Easter finest and snap a selfie in the vintage 1970’s Good Times Roll Volkswagen Bus and with the peace sign bunny ears throughout the park.
• Farmer’s Market | Shop and stroll local vendors displaying an eclectic selection of food, art, clothing, jewelry, home goods, pet supplies, body care and more.
