Easter egg hunt, yay! The Luxembourg City Tourist Office (LCTO) is inviting kids aged 4-12 to join a guide on a 2-hour city walk during which participants need to look for the traditional small terracotta whistles sold on Easter Monday at Éimaischen. Keep your eyes (and ears) open! Various times once again (in French, English, German and Luxembourgish).

3. Hear meditative electronic music

Rotondes, 3 Place des Rotondes, 2448 Luxembourg - Google Maps
When: Saturday, 8 April at 8pm - info & tickets

CS + Kreme are Conrad Standish and Sam Karmel – two Australians who record slow, meditative, experimental music. Their compositions have long build-ups, emphasising sweeping post-punk and chamber music soundscapes.

4. Celebrate Éimaischen on Monday

What: More whistling birds
Where: Nospelt - Google Maps
When: Monday, 10 April at 10am - more info here

The Émaischen festival is a wonderful annual traditional on Easter Monday, celebrated usually in the old town of Luxembourg City and in Nospelt. The main attraction at both locations are the “Péckvillercher”, little earthenware whistles shaped like birds, traditionally exchanged between lovers and now shared more generally. There are plenty of other handcrafts on sale as well. Happy Easter!

5. Watch The Super Mario Bros. Movie

What: Nintendo vibes
Where: Kinepolis, 45 Av. John F. Kennedy, 1855 Luxembourg - Google Maps
When: Various times - info & tickets

OMG! Feeling like such a child again! With help from Princess Peach, Mario gets ready to square off against the all-powerful Bowser to stop his plans from conquering the world...this trailer looks epic.

6. Party with live brass band MEUTE

What: Techno marching band
Where: Rockhal, 5 Av. du Rock’n’Roll, 4083 Esch-Belval - Google Maps
When: Saturday, 9 April at 8pm - info & tickets

The bass vibrates, confetti shimmers, and the red uniforms pop in the strobe lights. With its explosive mix of hypnotic driving techno and expressive brass band music, the techno marching band MEUTE has toured the world since 2016. The 11 musicians from Hamburg in their iconic red jackets quickly became a global phenomenon. Get ready for a steaming hot techno concert.

7. Do the egg-speriment!

What: Fun family activity
Where: Anywhere, but drop from high altitude
When: Anytime!

This is a really fun little project for children. Build a little plastic and paper parachute and attach it to an egg, then drop it from a high building or floor. The goal: Not to break the egg! Make this DIY experiment more fun by limiting materials, e.g. just use paper, string and one plastic bag.
