Easter Bunny Returns To Marlborough, Natick Malls In 2021
The Easter Bunny will be back in March at the Solomon Pond, Natick and Auburn malls with some new protocols in place.
MARLBOROUGH, MA — Most local malls will bring the Easter Bunny back to town in 2021.
The Simon-owned Solomon Pond and Auburn malls will begin Easter Bunny photos on March 18, but with key pandemic safety protocols in place — similar to Santa Claus visits over Christmas. But the big bunny will be available for socially distanced in-person visits beginning April 3.
Visits will be by reservation only, and the bunny will be wearing a mask (under the costume).

One year ago, malls across Massachusetts were forced to shut down as coronavirus swept across the state. Even in the days before the shut-down, Easter Bunny visits had stopped.
