An award-winning hotel and restaurant group will be hosting the event.
Provenance Inns and Hotels will be hiding chocolate eggs across the county this month in the lead-up to Easter.
The event is thought to bring 'Yorkshire's biggest Easter egg hunt', spanning across Harogate, Moulton, Helperby and other Yorkshire hotspots.
Lucky hunters who seek out the eggs will be able to enjoy a free drink at any Provenance site and there will be a host of Easter-themed dishes on the menu for those looking for a little more than a chocolate egg to satisfy their hunger.

Raising money for the Red Cross, Yorkshire's biggest Easter egg hunt is set to take place across the bank holiday weekend, beginning on Good Friday (Friday 15 April) and running until Easter Sunday (Sunday 17 April).
The idea is that clues will be dropped across Provenance Inns social media pages and those successful in finding the eggs can then redeem a free drink from the bar.
Dozens of branded chocolate eggs will be hidden in and around the towns and communities surrounding each venue, with hints and tips posted across the groups Facebook and Instagram pages.

Helperby’s The Oak Inn, The West Park in Harrogate, Marton-Cum-Grafton’s The Punch Bowl, and Moulton’s Black Bull are all joining in and putting on a spread worth of a Publican Award 2022.
Fresh from beating off stiff competition from across the UK and winning best food offering at the national Publican awards, Provenance Inns and Hotels will be serving a springtime menu with med potato, spinach, and lamb sauce.
The deliciously rich Sage and Harrogate Blue Cheese Gnocchi arrives with Tenderstem Broccoli and toasted almonds, whilst the aromatic Crispy Thai Vegetable Parcel is accompanied with Asian greens and a sweet potato Massaman curry.
The bestselling Panko Crumbed Chicken with Garlic has now been renamed the Chicken Kyiv, and £1 from each one sold in April will go towards the Red Cross Ukraine Crisis Appeal. This incredible charity has been working tirelessly to raise funds which will help those affected gain access to food, water, first aid, medicine, warm clothes, and shelter.

Anyone lucky enough to locate one of the chocolatey treats can also enjoy a free drink at their local Provenance bar. This can be a soft drink, or a pint of beer or a gin and tonic for those over 18. With al fresco dining available across almost all Provenance pubs and restaurants, it’s the perfect destination for some family time over the Easter holidays.
Tom Patrick, Head of Marketing of the Provenance Group said:
‘’We can’t wait to welcome in the spring/summer season this year and want to make Easter that little bit more special in 2022. Many of us haven’t had enough time with loved ones over the past two years, and our family-friendly venues offer the perfect setting for memorable get-togethers.’’
‘’Our Easter egg hunt is going to be quite epic, with not one but seven of Yorkshire’s finest pubs taking part. Our chefs have also been busy crafting our new a la carte menu, which features a feast of premium meat, seafood, and locally sourced produce.’’
‘’And, with everything going on in Ukraine right now, we simply had to do our bit. The work the Red Cross does is nothing short of amazing, with every penny donated going to help the millions affected by the tragic events which have recently unfolded. Let’s try and raise as much money as possible for this worthy cause.’’

Number 10 North is officially ‘open for business’ and here’s why it’s so important for Yorkshire
Number 10 North has officially 'opened for business' this week, and Andy Burnham has now explained his key reasons for launching it.
You may remember that earlier last month, Andy Burnham revealed he had intentions to create a Number 10 North if he was to become Prime Minister, with the new base expected to be a 'dominant driver of the UK's economy' once it was officially up and running... and now, fast forward to today, Number 10 North is officially 'open for business'.
Operating from Heron House in Manchester city centre, as previously reported on by The Manc, Number 10 North will be the Government’s new 'situation room for growth'.
It also brings the 'levers' of local economic growth and devolution together under one roof for the first time ever.
With the Prime Minister expected to work from Number 10 North each week, so that decisions about the country’s economic future will no longer exclusively be made in Westminster, and with other ministers also working from there on a regular basis, the Government says the move underlines its determination to 'do things differently'.

Now that Number 10 North has officially opened, Andy Burnham has explained why this move is so important for Yorkshire and the north as a whole.
"For 40 years, power and resources have been sucked into the centre, and too many communities have felt forgotten, without the attention and investment they deserve," explained Andy Burnham.
"Number 10 North will change that by putting more power into every postcode across the entire country. It will be the situation room for making Britain better, the place we use to get power out of Westminster, into the hands of people at a local level, so that they can turn things around.
"The days of Whitehall resisting devolution are over, for good."

Pints of Knowledge, Callum Campbell’s fastest-growing event, is coming to Leeds city centre this summer
Clementine Hall
The pub night that's packing out venues across the UK is coming to Leeds.
Let us introduce you to Pints of Knowledge, a phenomenon founded by Callum Campbell that has built a social media following of more than 160,000 people.
This is different to your average night out, it's a chance to meet new people and spark interesting conversation all in the relaxing surroundings of a pub.
The event has attracted thousands to its unique mix of expert talks, conversation and community in pubs across the UK.

And if you're looking to get in on the action then you're in luck, because Pints of Knowledge is arriving at The Wardrobe on Sunday 9 August.
So, what can you expect? From landmark legal history and the hidden pressures behind big systems to the evolving language of gaslighting and radical cinema, Sunday's Leeds programme will demonstrate exactly why Pints of Knowledge has struck such a chord with audiences across the UK.
Founder Callum Campbell, who has spent more than a decade producing live events across Britain, said bringing the concept to Leeds was the natural next step - and we're so happy he thought so.

He said: "I've always wanted to bring Pints of Knowledge to more cities across England, and Leeds has such a strong appetite for ideas and conversation. Watching this grow has been amazing, and I can't wait to bring it here.
"As more people look for experiences beyond a traditional night out, Pints of Knowledge offers something different: expert speakers, thought-provoking conversations and the chance to meet new people, all in the relaxed surroundings of a pub.
"People still love going to the pub, but they're looking for more from the experience. Pints of Knowledge is about hearing incredible stories, asking questions, meeting interesting people and leaving having learned something new."

The Pints of Knowledge programme at The Wardrobe will look like this:
12pm - Human rights lawyer Mahnoor Omer presents '10 Legal Cases that Changed History'.
2pm - Georgina Shute asks 'Why billion-pound systems are built by people who can't finish their to-do lists'.
4pm - Isobel Logan explores 'Gaslighting: The Evolution of a Concept Across Art, Relationships and Politics'.
6pm - Angelos Koutsourakis will examine 'Third Cinema, The Global South & Climate Change'.
Campbell added: "One hour you can be unpacking landmark legal cases, the next you're hearing about the psychology behind gaslighting, before finishing the day exploring cinema and climate change. That's what makes Pints of Knowledge different.
"This is just the beginning. We've seen an incredible response across the UK, and we're excited to build on that by bringing Pints of Knowledge to more cities across the country.”
Pints of Knowledge takes place at The Wardrobe in Leeds on Sunday 9 August, and you can get your tickets here.
