All aboard the train for The Lexicon’s Easter fun

GET ready for an egg-citing fun packed programme this Easter at The Lexicon.

There’s something for every-bunny with the return of the Lexicon Express giving a mini tour of the town centre.

Catch the train outside Superdry on The Avenue, from Friday, March 31 until Sunday, April 16 2023 (closed Easter Sunday).

Trips on The Lexicon Easter Express will cost £1 per passenger – sorry no cash – with all monies collected will be donated to The Lexicon Charity Fund.

As an added treat, each passenger will receive a free mini-Easter egg or vegan-friendly sweets and a pop badge, while stocks last.

The Lexicon will also be hosting an egg-travagant free Easter Egg Hunt with larger-than-life eggs to find across the town centre.

Visitors can pick-up an Easter Egg Hunt leaflet, for a chance to win one of three family meal vouchers from The Lexicon’s latest restaurant, Chopstix.

Sue Boor, head of marketing at The Lexicon, said: “The Lexicon Easter Express has become a popular tradition in the town centre and this year we are delighted to announce that the train has switched to electric, making it quieter and more environmentally friendly.”

The Lexicon has also teamed-up with Bracknell Foodbank to being some extra Easter joy to local families.

Shoppers can pop a boxed Easter Egg into The Lexicon Giving Box located in Princess Square and the Foodbank will distribute the chocolate treats in time for Easter.

Cllr Marc Brunel-Walker, executive member for economic development and regeneration at Bracknell Forest Council, said: “I can’t wait to hop on board The Lexicon Easter Express. The activities are a cracking way to entertain the family this Easter.”
