Easter, Passover, and Earth Day mean there's lots of fun for kids in Atlanta this April!

We kick off April with spring break for most Atlanta students. Families who stay in town will have plenty of options for entertainment, like Stone Mountain Park's Spring Fun Break. This week-long event includes Stone Mountain's usual amazing attractions but also extras like comedic stunt dogs, a magic show, and the Easter Bunny. Speaking of Easter, the holiday falls during spring break this year on April 9, 2023, so get ready with our list of Atlanta Easter Egg Hunts, including the Northeast Cobb Community Egg Drop; which dumps 90,000 eggs from a helicopter on April 8. Passover also starts during Atlanta spring break, and we've got great holiday ideas!

Another one of our favorite things about April in Atlanta? The beloved Atlanta Dogwood Festival is back for its 87th year, in Piedmont Park on April 14-16, and showcases great music, art, food, and the kids' village. 

If you're looking to get away in April, we've got awesome vacay ideas for families in our Family Travel Guide, including driveable destinations like Charleston, SC plus Cheap Spring Break Ideas for Families. Find more spring activity inspiration with our Spring Fun Guide for Atlanta Families

We’re adding more events to our family activity calendar every day, so don’t forget to check it frequently!
