RPM and Mondelez International Launch the 2018 Cadbury Easter Egg Hunt

Independent creative agency RPM are working again in 2018 with Mondelez International on the Cadbury Easter Egg Hunt for 2018.

This will be the 11th year the event has run in partnership with The National Trust and The National Trust of Scotland, and RPM’s 5th year managing the campaign, which looks to leverage the ritual of Easter egg hunts and make them synonymous with Cadbury. In turn making Cadbury the icon of Easter.

“Easter is an important time of year for us [Cadbury] commercially, and as a brand. Our big, bold ambition for is to continue to become the icon of Easter, which we’ll do through owning the ritual of the Easter egg hunt. We want to do this in a way which brings families together,” said Mondelez in their release.

“In 2017 we achieved fantastic results with over 1 million people attending a hunt over the Easter weekend and an enjoyment rate of 97%. We plan to continue to improve on these results in 2018 and to build on the association Cadbury has with Easter.” Dom Robertson, Managing Director, RPM

Cadbury will be providing properties with the support to activate their own personalised egg hunt themes, linking back to each of the properties unique stories, all leading to a Cadbury treat as a reward at the end.

RPM have created and are leading on all experiential elements of the campaign. This includes roll out of the successful 2017 strategy and creative concepts. The agency is also managing the National Trust partnership kit and signage production, staffing and logistics.

“We know how important Cadbury is at Easter and this year, we want to take it to the next level by bringing a smile to the whole nation with Cadbury Easter Egg Hunt – a season of celebrations where Cadbury Easter bunny will bring families together around the ritual of egg hunts. We are very excited to partner with National Trust and National Trust for Scotland again and with RPM’s great support, organise more than 300 Cadbury Easter Egg Hunts across the UK. We expect again several 100,000s of families to take part,” said Delia Metral, Junior Brand Manager Easter.

The hunts will be taking place at 305 National Trust properties across England, Scotland and Wales on the weekend between Friday 30th March – Monday 2nd April (inc. Tuesday 3rd April in N.Ireland).

Easter egg hunt participants are asked to either pay a small fee or make a donation to take part in a hunt, with all proceeds going back to conserving the properties. The campaign has raised over £4.1million over the past 10 years.
