Centrale & Whitgift and Croydon BID launches the Ultimate Easter Mining Adventure

Following the release of A Minecraft Movie, Centrale & Whitgift, in partnership with Croydon BID, launches Mine Time – an action-packed Easter event with activities for the whole family.
From 14 – 20 April, guests can take on thrilling challenges, mine for blocks, and win exciting prizes.

This Easter, Centrale & Whitgift and Croydon Business Improvement District (BID) are bringing an exciting new challenge to Croydon! Introducing ‘Mine Time – The Easter Challenge,’ an immersive event designed for families to enjoy a thrilling, high-energy bungee run challenge inspired by Minecraft-style gameplay. Running over the Easter half-term from 14 – 20 April, the event will be packed with action, creativity, prizes and fun challenges for an Easter celebration like no other!

Dare to take on the super Easter bungee challenge, the event will give participants just 60 seconds to collect as many coloured blocks as possible while strapped to a bungee cord. But be strategic – certain blocks are worth double points! Scores will be recorded on a live leaderboard, with winners in each age category taking home an Easter prize bundle!

But the excitement doesn’t end there. Head to the brick pit, where your imagination can run wild as you build, craft, and create your own masterpieces. Whether you’re a seasoned builder or just getting started, our expert mining team will be on hand with fun challenges and all the building blocks you need for a fantastic day out.

Centrale & Whitgift and Croydon BID are proud to bring this fantastic Easter experience to Croydon, creating an exciting and memorable event for families across the community.

We’re delighted to bring Mine Time to Croydon this Easter. This event is all about giving families something active and fun for free over the half term break.
