ROYAL OAK, Mich. — The Detroit Zoo is thrilled to announce the return of Bunnyville, presented by Meijer, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. March 29 and 30. This beloved annual event promises a day of family-friendly fun as guests spring into the season with a variety of exciting activities.
At Bunnyville, guests will enjoy a golden egg hunt with
thrilling prizes, immersive experiences at educational Connection Stations,
animal engagements and complimentary bunny ears, courtesy of Meijer. The event
will also feature live entertainment and exclusive spring-themed photo
opportunities to create lasting memories. Additionally, whisker painting will
be available to get everyone in the springtime spirit.
This year, Bunnyville is bringing even more excitement with
brand-new features to engage guests of all ages. These features include plushes
made from recycled water bottles as golden egg hunt prizes and the debut of the
Zoo Tales Story Trail, an innovative collaboration with PBS that brings stories
of the wild to life throughout the Zoo.
Bunnyville is included with Zoo admission and is free for
members. Guests are encouraged to bring canned goods to donate to Gleaners
Community Food Bank.
“Bunnyville is a cherished tradition that brings joy and excitement to families throughout the community,” said Marissa Ratzenberger, Detroit Zoological Society (DZS) event supervisor. “We’re thrilled to offer a range of activities that celebrate the spirit of spring while also supporting important initiatives like Gleaners Community Food Bank.”
“One of the best things about Bunnyville is that by attending, you contribute to the DZS’s mission of creating meaningful connections between people, animals and the natural world so all can thrive,” Ratzenberger adds. “The community’s support enables us to be leaders in conservation, animal well-being, education and environmental sustainability.”
Bunnyville is also supported by Doetsch Environmental
Services, Fifth Third, Goldfish Swim School and Aqua-Tots.
