Thousands of candy stuffed easter eggs are making their way to Hopkinsville for the 2025 Nighttime WHOP’er of an Egg Hunt.

The annual event, sponsored by the WHOP family of stations, is welcoming guests to the Hopkinsville Tie Breaker Athletic Complex on Friday, April 18. The hunt kicks off at 7:30 p.m. and is open to all children under eight years old.

To participate in the event and have the chance to win the grand prize egg with $98.70 inside be sure your child has a “hunting license”.

Registration will also be available at the hunt from 6:00 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. for those who missed out on pre-registration.
