Easter in Lawrenceville 2027: egg hunts, brunch and services

Last checked Oct. 6, 2026. This page is updated each year at the same address. The 2027 egg hunts have not been announced; the dates below are from 2026 and are marked that way. We never guess a new date.

Easter is Sunday, March 28, 2027. Most of Lawrenceville’s egg hunts are run by Gwinnett County Parks and Recreation at Rhodes Jordan Park and the Bethesda Park Aquatic Center. The county publishes its spring events in a March to May program guide; the 2027 edition was not out as of Oct. 6. Here is what ran last spring, so you know what to look for.
