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.’’

Dishoom announces official opening date for new Leeds restaurant
Clementine Hall
It's the moment we've all been waiting for, Dishoom is coming to Leeds.
The whispers of Dishoom's arrival in Leeds city centre have been going on for a while now, but over the past few weeks it has started to feel very real.
Taking over the beautiful old Flannel's site on the coveted Vicar Lane, signs started to pop up for Dishoom and work was cracking on fast.
Well now, we have an opening date - and we don't have long to wait.
Dishoom Leeds will open on Monday 3 August, with guests being able to enjoy 50% off food during an initial soft-opening period, ahead of the official opening on Friday 14 August.

As with every Dishoom café, the Leeds restaurant begins with a story. This one takes inspiration from the extraordinary true events surrounding the explosion of the SS Fort Stikine in Bombay Dock in April 1944, a wartime disaster that sent gold bars flying across the city.
Legend has it that some of the missing gold was never recovered. Some was discovered embedded in walls and rooftops across Bombay. Other pieces quietly disappeared into the hands of lucky citizens, melted into bangles or hidden away in drawers.
Dishoom Leeds reimagines the fortune made from the gold bars and guests will discover subtle references to the glamorous mid-century details through the interiors and artwork, giving playful nods to Bombay’s golden age.
With all day dining available, guests can dine on the beloved breakfast right through to late evening feasting, with the café will serve a lovingly curated menu of Bombay comfort food inspired by the city’s cafés, grills, street stalls and family kitchens.
Shamil Thakrar, co-founder, also known as Head Babu, at Dishoom, said: “Leeds is a city with tremendous warmth, creativity and character, full of people who know the value of gathering together over good food and drinks. Bringing Dishoom here has long been a dream for us.”
"The story behind this café is rooted in one of Bombay’s most extraordinary moments – the day gold bars fell from the sky after the explosion of Fort Stikine in 1944. Amidst the tragedy and chaos, there were also tales of unexpected fortune, human resilience and hopeful reinvention. We were captivated by this, and we cannot wait to welcome Leeds into the café that pays homage to the heritage of Bombay.”
