Spring fever is starting to appear at Tysons Corner Center, with the first day of the new season a little more than a week away.
The mall is hosting several seasonal programs, including the Easter Bunny’s return and official National Cherry Blossom Festival events. The cherry blossom-themed events will coincide with D.C.’s National Cherry Blossom Festival, which runs between March 20 and April 12.
Here’s a peek at what to expect:
Easter Bunny Photos
March 6-22: 2-7 p.m. on weekdays, 10 a.m.-8 p.m. on Saturdays and 11 a.m.-6 p.m. on Sundays
March 23-April 3: 11 a.m.-7 p.m. on weekdays, 10 a.m.- 8 p.m. on Saturdays, 11 a.m.-6 p.m. on Sundays and 10 a.m.-9 p.m. on Saturday, April 4
Get ready for those memorable Easter photos as the Easter Bunny arrives in the mall’s Fashion Court. In addition to traditional photos, Pet Night next Monday (March 16) will bring furry friends into the Easter Bunny photo op, and a sensory-friendly Bunny Cares event will be held on March 22.
New this year to the Easter Bunny visits are Kidz Bop Bunny Dance Parties. At the start of every hour, families can join a children’s dance party with easy-to-follow moves and high-energy music.
Families are encouraged to reserve a time online to reduce wait times. Walk-ins are also accepted.
