2018 FAMILY FUN AT COMBINED THEME PARK, ZOO AND HOLIDAY RESORT
Flamingo Land Resort is situated between York and the East coast, and this combined theme park, zoo and holiday resort is an ideal destination for a fun-packed family holiday. All areas of the park are open daily between 24th March and 4th November 2018 (with Winter Zoo open daily during November to March).
Easter Activities
Join in the Easter Egg Hunt in Dino Dig between Good Friday 30th March and Sunday 15th April. Once a child has found an egg in the sand pit with a bucket and spade, it can be redeemed in the Dino-Stone Park Shop for a free egg-themed tasty treat. Across every day of the Easter School Holidays you can also join in the Zoo Trail and complete your sheet whilst walking around our award-winning animal collection. Anyone who completes the trail will receive a free mini-bag of Haribo sweets, and be entered into a prize draw to win a Family Annual Pass.
