about the event
the westfield Easter egg drop
We hope you'll join us for the 12th Annual Westfield Easter Egg Drop on March 23rd! This is one of the largest and most spectacular egg hunts in Indianapolis put on entirely by 100+ volunteers from multiple Westfield-area churches! The event is hosted at Grand Park in partnership with the City of Westfield and our sponsoring partners.
We look forward to putting on this free community event every year and our volunteers have already been working for months getting everything set. The helicopter pilot knows his route, tens of thousands of pieces of candy are on the way, and the plastic chickens are going crazy laying their plastic Easter eggs (where did you think plastic eggs came from?). All that's missing...is you!
As in years past, we'll have two separate drops (morning and afternoon) with about 50,000 plastic eggs being used at both drops. We have also expanded our registration with spots for 2500 children!
This year, preregistration will open on March 14th at 10AM. Look for the code on our sponsor page on March 13th!

HISTORY
NSPIRE Church hosted the very first Easter Egg Drop in Westfield at Oak Trace Elementary on April 7, 2012. It has grown every year since, moving four times (to Washington Woods Elementary, the Westfield High School, and now Grand Park). The dream of the Egg Drop has always been about building community and serving our friends and neighbors. In 2016 NSPIRE invited other Westfield churches to join together to present this amazing event to the community.
Our 2017 Egg Drop drew over 7000 people. The pre-registration filled up in less than eight hours! In 2018 we expanded the number of registered children to 2,000. For the first time in the history of the event, the 2018 Egg Drop was cancelled due to 7 inches of snow. In 2019 and 2020, the pandemic derailed us again.
The 2022 Egg Drop marked the post-pandemic resurrection of the Westfield Egg Drop, with over 8000 people in attendance. 2023’s event was larger still, and we anticipate another record turnout for 2024!

Since the Westfield Easter Egg Drop has doubled the number of attendees, Grand Park is the perfect place for families to gather and enjoy the holiday in a unique and fun way. We look forward in continuing this successful partnership with NSPIRE and our Westfield churches.”
– Andy Cook, Former Mayor of the City of Westfield
Past participants have said,
“All of the volunteers did an excellent job. From the time we arrived until the time we left the parking lot you could see how well organized the event was. As we left, our kids were already asking if we could do it again next year.”
“All of the volunteers were so friendly and helpful, setting a great atmosphere for the exciting event.”
