ShrewsburyTraitors for Daters for 25-40 - Easter Chicks Vs Easter Bunnies
19:30 - 22:30 23rd April 2026

Albrighton Hall Hotel & SpaMore InformationFind love in Shropshire whilst playing a classic game of Good vs Evil with other single people - with an easter twist!
Picture a springtime battlefield where velvet-eared heroes face off against tiny feathered villains. The prize is glory, chocolate and possibly a date.Want to find love AND have fun at the same time? Come along to this seasonal game of Good vs Sneaky!
If you know the TV show Traitors or the online game Among Us, you already get the vibe. This works in a similar way.
You will be in a room with up to 29 other players. There are 15 tickets for each gender on sale.
At the start of the game everyone closes their eyes. Our Games Masters will secretly select their evil players. If they tap you, you become an Easter Chick. The Chicks are the baddies. Your mission is to quietly pick off the Bunnies one by one each night and try to outnumber them and win the night!
If you do not get tapped then you are an Easter Bunny. Your job is to sniff out which cute pastel birds are up to no good and protect the meadow from being taken over.
Most people have never played this face to face. If that is you, relax. It is simple, funny and an easy way to see who catches your eye. If someone does catch your eye you will have a dating score card where you can mark down who you would like to see again.
If they also tick you then I will send you each others details within 24 hours of the event ending. You need to be within 3 years of the advertised age range to attend.
Bunnies vs Chicks. Chocolate chaos. Possible romance. Happy hunting. 🐰🥚🐥
