UTICA :The annual Utica Zoo Eggstravaganza returns to the scenic grounds of the Utica Zoo on Saturday, April 8th, from 10am-3pm. Eggstravaganza is unlike other Easter themed events; the focus is all about the Egg and the animals who lay them.

New this year, visitors will enjoy live music from Amos Donnell, enjoy entertainment by Jim Okey Magic Comedy, and have the chance to meet various characters including Ariel, Spider Man, Stormtrooper, Alice, and the Queen of Hearts.
