Easter egg hunts for adults? Here’s where to find 13 of them.

Easter Egg hunts are better when you’re over 21 and looking for eggs with your friends, perhaps with a beverage in your hands.

The prizes are better, too.

Here are some of the adult Easter egg hunts coming up in our area. All are open to adults 21+ only:

Ferguson

• Where: Ferguson Community Center, 1050 Smith Avenue, Ferguson
• How much: $12

Last year’s hunt was called the first-ever North County Easter Egg Hunt, which makes this version the second-ever. The event is for adults only, but childcare is available — for kids 5 to 13 — for $10. Sponsored by the Parks and Rec departments of Ferguson, Bridgeton and Bellefontaine Neighbors.

Maryland Heights

More than 3,000 eggs will be scattered across Vago Park, and each one will contain a piece of candy. There will be a limit of 10 eggs per person, and prizes will be given out in some fashion — so don’t open the eggs before turning them in. In addition, there will be 12 gold-colored eggs, and these are especially valuable. Bring your own basket, food and drink.

• Where: Sokol Camp, 6270 Highway 61/67, Imperial
• How much: $25

• Where: Pacific City Park, 900 West Congress Street, Pacific

• Where: Public School House, 5546 Chestnut Street, Cottleville

The St. Louis area’s best-known windmill-related restaurant and venue is holding its third-annual Easter egg hunt for adults. They say the eggs will be full of “odd prizes,” and that grand prizes will be awarded to the finders of “a few” golden eggs. The restaurant and bar will also be open, of course.

The Easter egg hunts for kids will be held just before this one. Shortleaf is a brewery, so prizes include beer (as well as merch and other items). A free beer — but not their imperial stouts — comes with the ticket.
