The Big Egg Hunt, also known as the Faberge Big Egg Hunt, was a 2012 charity fundraising campaign, in aid of Action for Children and Elephant Family, and sponsored by the jeweller Faberge. The two charities backed the largest ever Easter egg hunt, known as The Big Egg Hunt, in London in the Spring of 2012. Around 200 artists, celebrities and designers created and painted metre high fibreglass eggs which were scattered across selected locations around London. Londoners had forty days from 21 February 2012 to locate the various giant eggs around the capital.
