Bendigo Easter Egg Hunt

The Bendigo Easter Egg Hunt is a much sort after activity at the annual Bendigo Easter Festival, with Vision Australia having a long history as host and beneficiary of funds raised.

The Hunt will be on Good Friday, 3rd April 2026 where families have over 80,000 Easter eggs to find and enjoy.

This is a ticketed event which sells over 4000 tickets, resulting in a sold out event in 2024.

Throughout the day, there are 23 hunts families can join. And there is something for everyone as we also have an accessible hunt and a blindfolded adult hunt.

Tickets are scheduled to go on sale from mid Feb.

Trek for Vision 2026

In May 2026, you can embark on this trek along the Great Ocean Walk and experience some of the most iconic scenery in Australia - from deserted beaches and coastal dunes to sheer limestone cliffs and towering mountain ash forests.

The region teems with wildlife: koalas, kangaroos, fur seals, black cockatoos, and more. With luck, you’ll spot some of these local residents along the way.

Over 35 kilometres, you’ll soak in the raw beauty of the Twelve Apostles and their breathtaking surrounds.

This is an exhilarating journey for any nature lover, with just enough challenge to leave you feeling accomplished. And all funds raised will support people who are blind or have low vision.
