More than 4,000 adults and children are expected at the 11th anniversary of the Spring Egg-Stravaganza, the largest free candy grab in Chicago, at Soldier Field Stadium, 1410 S. Museum Campus Dr., Saturday, April 12. A ticketed breakfast will be held at the United Club from 8:30-10 a.m. The admission-free festival begins at 9 a.m. featuring the candy grab on the field at 10 a.m.
Children ages 10 years and younger are welcome to participate in this event. The fun will be broadcast on the stadium’s two super-sized 23’ x 82’ video screens for parents to cheer from the sidelines.
“This popular event is a wonderful opportunity for Chicagoans to celebrate spring and to experience the historic stadium,” said Michael Kelly, General Superintendent and CEO of the Chicago Park District.
Before the candy grab, children will have the opportunity to have breakfast with the bunny and take photos at Soldier Field’s United Club from 8:30 – 10 a.m. Admission to the breakfast is $19 for adults, $13 for children under age 10, and free for children under age 3 with a paying adult.
