10 Ways to Celebrate Easter in the Office
You can bring some Easter spirit into your workplace with some fun and easy-to-follow ideas. From decorating the workplace to handing out "Eggcelent" awards, these Easter ideas can boost team spirit and brighten up the office—without slowing down the workday.
Here are 10 fun ways to celebrate Easter in the office.
1. Decorate the Workspace with Spring Vibes
Bring Easter to life around the office with soft pastel colours, bunny-themed decorations, and fresh flowers. It is an easy way to create a festive atmosphere and lift everyone’s mood.
Want to add a fun twist? Run a desk decorating contest! Encourage each department or team to show off their Easter creativity, and let the whole office vote for the best display. It can be a fun Easter themed team building activity and a great way to get everyone involved—even those who don’t usually join in.
2. Host an Office Easter Egg Hunt
Nothing says Easter like a good old-fashioned egg hunt! Hide real or plastic eggs around the office filled with chocolates, small goodies, or even uplifting notes. It can really brighten someone's day. You can also tuck in vouchers for things like an extra coffee break or a casual dress day—little rewards that make a big difference.
If you have remote employees, try to organise a virtual Easter egg hunt instead. Share a photo of each egg hidden in different parts of the office, and let the team guess the locations. It is a simple, inclusive way to ensure everyone is part of the Easter celebration, no matter where they are working from.
3. Organise a Festive Potluck or Catered Lunch
Food is one of the easiest ways to celebrate a corporate Easter party. It brings people together and ensures a time well spent for everyone. You can either invite employees to bring in Easter-themed dishes for a fun potluck or take the pressure off by organising a catered lunch.
If you prefer the latter, Catering Zone is here to help! You can choose from a range of delicious Easter treats to treat your team. Three of our favourites include:
Rainbow Cocktail Size Easter Slider Box
This vibrant Easter-inspired slider box comes with 20 cocktail-size mini burgers. It is perfect for sharing at office activities, celebrations, and events. Each slider is a 2-bite delight, featuring a mix of juicy beef, pulled chicken, smoky ham, and flavour-packed jackfruit fillings.
The box will include:
- Pulled Beef with Coleslaw Slider x 5
- BBQ Jackfruit Slider x 5
- Pulled Portuguese Chicken Slider x 5
- Ham & Coleslaw Pickle Slider x5
This beautifully curated sweet-only platter features a selection of Easter-themed treats. It can be the ideal choice for corporate morning or afternoon tea in a special Easter group activity around the office.
The box will include:
- Chocolate Hot Cross Bun x 8
- Fruit Hot Cross Bun x 8

You will get 6 gluten-free chocolate hot cross buns served with cinnamon butter, Nutella, and strawberry jam. It will allow you to serve your employees with dietary restrictions or preferences and ensure everyone feels included.
4. Easter-Themed Team Games or Quizzes
Easter-themed games are a great way to bring your team together. It can spark some laughs and encourage friendly competition around the workplace. Try hosting an egg decorating contest or a quick trivia quiz filled with fun facts about Easter traditions, chocolate bunnies, and springtime around the world. It is light, engaging, and easy to join between tasks.
Setting up a “Guess How Many Jellybeans” jar in the break room can be another simple hit. Team members can drop in their guesses throughout the day, and the winner gets a small prize or an Easter gift. It is a classic for a reason—easy to organise, and surprisingly fun!
5. Easter Basket Exchange (Like Secret Santa)
An Easter basket exchange is a great way to spread some joy around the office. It works just like Secret Santa—but with Easter treats like chocolate eggs and bunny-themed goodies.
Set a small budget—say $10 per basket—to keep things fun and affordable. Include treats like chocolate Easter bunnies, mini eggs, or even a small personalised gift. Let team members sign up voluntarily so no one feels pressured.
This simple gesture helps employees feel appreciated—and it is a sweet way to celebrate Easter in the office without too much planning.
6. DIY Craft Station or Breakroom Activity
Give your team a creative outlet by setting up a DIY craft station in the break room. It is a simple way to bring out some Easter spirit and help everyone unwind.
Include supplies for making Easter cards or painting eggs—plastic or boiled. You could also add coloured markers, paints, and a bit of glitter for extra fun. This kind of casual activity lets employees take a breather, tap into their creativity, and enjoy a little hands-on fun during the workday. It is a low-pressure, high-reward idea that adds colour and joy to the office.
7. Spring-Themed Dress-Up Day
Brighten up the office by inviting everyone to dress in pastel colours, floral prints, or Easter themed accessories like bunny ears. It is a light-hearted way to celebrate Easter at work and bring some seasonal cheer to the workplace.
Encourage participation by offering small prizes for the most creative outfit or best group theme. Whether it is a full spring ensemble or just a fun pair of socks, this activity adds a festive touch and gives your team a reason to smile.
8. Give Out Small Appreciation Gifts
Easter celebrations can be the perfect time to show your team a little extra appreciation. Hand out small gifts like chocolate Easter bunnies, mini plants, or company-branded mugs to brighten their day. These are all great ways to show appreciation for the hard work your team puts in.
You can also add a personal touch by including a handwritten thank-you note. It doesn’t have to be long — just a few words of gratitude can go a long way in boosting morale and making your team feel valued.
9. Recognise Employees with “Eggcellent” Awards
Celebrate the little wins with fun, light-hearted awards. Create categories like “Best Team Player,” “Easter Spirit Champ,” or “Most Organised Desk Bunny.”
Use this as a chance to publicly appreciate individuals or teams during your Easter celebration. A small certificate or treat paired with recognition can lift spirits and strengthen team bonds.
10. Celebrate Remotely with Virtual Easter Fun
Make sure your remote team members feel part of the fun, too. Organise virtual Easter games like trivia, bingo, or even a virtual egg hunt using creative clues and screen-sharing.
Encourage everyone to use Easter-themed Zoom backgrounds or wear bunny ears to the call. To make it more special, send digital gift cards or small care packages with Easter decorations and treats. It is a great way to share the Easter spirit no matter where your team is.
Bonus Tips for Inclusivity and Sensitivity
Celebrating Easter at work should bring people together—not leave anyone out. A thoughtful approach makes sure everyone feels welcome, no matter what they believe or celebrate. For instance, you should recognise that not everyone celebrates the holiday. Some may have different beliefs or simply prefer not to join the corporate Easter celebration ideas. And that is perfectly fine. Make sure all activities are optional and presented as lighthearted ways to enjoy the season—not mandatory celebrations.
You should also try to focus on the broader theme of spring rather than Easter itself. Think about new beginnings, gratitude, and shared fun. You can still decorate, enjoy treats, or host fun Easter team building activities with a seasonal twist.
Offering a mix of activities helps include everyone. Some may enjoy trivia or creative crafts such as Easter egg decorating contests. Others may prefer a quiet desk drop of treats. Giving your team variety—and the choice to participate—is one of the easiest ways to make this Easter inclusive and enjoyable for all.
