Sensory Friendly Experience

April 06, 2026

We're proud to once again offer our Sensory Friendly Easter Eggcitment experience at the BC Wildlife Park, in partnership with the Canucks Autism Network. Join us on Monday, April 06 from 09:00am to 12:00pm for a quieter, more inclusive celebration designed for guests who may benefit from a sensory-sensitive environment.

During this time, no music will be played, Uncle Chris the Clown will remain stationary on the Great Lawn, and a designated quiet space will be available for anyone needing a break from the excitement.

Trained staff from the Canucks Autism Network will be on-site to provide support, and sensory kits will be available to borrow from Guest Services.

Find the Golden Egg!

Each day, one golden egg will be hidden somewhere in a public area of the Park. If you're the lucky one to find it, you’ll receive complimentary admission and a private animal encounter for 4 people!

To claim your prize, simply bring the egg to Guest Services and exchange it for a gift certificate.

Only one egg is hidden per day, and it will always be placed in areas open to the public, so no need to venture into restricted zones!

Happy hunting and good luck!
