From 1 to 5 April 2026, families can take part in the Eggventure at Menlyn Park Shopping Centre, followed by a special Peppa Pig Meet & Greet on 11 and 12 April 2026, as the centre launches a vibrant April campaign aimed at giving visitors more than the usual Easter experience.

This year, Menlyn Park Shopping Centre is focusing on what families are really looking for during the school holiday period: quality time together, memorable entertainment, playful moments for children and a destination that offers everything in one place.

Through an Easter-themed activation designed to create memorable family-friendly moments, together with the broader retail and lifestyle offering of the centre, Menlyn Park Shopping Centre is positioning itself as a must-visit destination this April.

At the heart of the campaign is Easter Wonderland, a colourful and playful campaign platform that brings seasonal energy to the centre and creates a sense of excitement around every visit. Rather than positioning Easter as a once-off promotion, Menlyn Park Shopping Centre is using the season as an opportunity to create a broader family experience that encourages discovery, participation and return visits.

The Eggventure, running from 1 to 5 April 2026, gives children the chance to enjoy an interactive activity experience in-centre, while the Peppa Pig Meet & Greet on 11 and 12 April 2026 adds a major highlight for young fans and families looking for something extra special during the April period.

“Menlyn Park Shopping Centre is always looking for ways to give shoppers more than just a shopping trip,” says the marketing team at this major retail destination in Pretoria.

“This April, the aim is to create a family-friendly environment filled with fun, entertainment and reasons to spend time together. The Easter Garden and Peppa Pig form part of a wider experience that brings added excitement to the centre during a key family period.”

The campaign is designed to appeal to families across Pretoria by combining entertainment with convenience. Parents can bring their children to enjoy the Eggventure or meet Peppa Pig, while also making the most of Menlyn Park Shopping Centre’s restaurants, retail offering and leisure spaces. This makes the campaign not only attractive as a seasonal activation, but also as a full family day-out opportunity.

For Menlyn Park Shopping Centre, the strength of the campaign lies in the combination of experience and destination value. Families are not only visiting for one attraction – they are visiting a centre that offers multiple touchpoints in one outing, from entertainment and dining to shopping and social moments worth sharing.

With vibrant campaign visuals, family-focused activations and a strong April line-up, Menlyn Park Shopping Centre is set to stand out as one of Pretoria’s key destinations for families during the school holiday season.

Whether visitors come for the Eggventure, the excitement of Peppa Pig, a meal out, or simply to enjoy time together, Menlyn Park Shopping Centre is offering a programme built around fun, accessibility and memorable moments.
