The quality of the various ingame events seems to vary a lot. Some cause a lot of excitement and make their presence
well known by infiltrating the capital cities -- Greatfather Winter and the Lunar festivities (a well known Azerothian
rock band) are examples. However, some tend to just quietly happen, without barkers or much fanfare at all.I went egg hunting for a couple of hours yesterday; I missed Noblegarden last year, so I had little idea what to expect. After a few false starts looking in the capital cities (as the official website implied) I ended up running around Elwynn and Teldrassil on a couple of characters. In all my searching I found about ten eggs, and ended up with a bagful of lollipops and chocolate squares giving 61 health; I managed to find a pair of Black Tuxedo Pants, identical to a craftable item, though I was angling for the formal attire.
I didn't run into any other egg hunters, and most of my guild didn't know the event was running, despite the EU launcher promoting it. Although I'm reasonably pleased I had the trousers drop, meaning I got something for all my effort, I spent a lot of time looking for eggs and finding none at all. Perhaps my time would have been better spent at the regular ingame events taking place yesterday, getting a pet chicken or painting an egg; how was your Easter Sunday?

The whole event was quite underwhelming for me - I found one just northeast of Thunder Bluff. Fortunately, I had a great run in the Wailing Caverns with a pickup group, which more than made up for it.

The Noblegarden event was such a let down. I had no idea that the eggs were available until I happened to see a message in general chat fly by saying someone found an egg. After an hour of running around Elwynn Forest, I found a total of two eggs. All was not lost, as I mined a lot of copper ore along the way, but I was so disappointed that I didn't get an elegant dress. I supposed I could've wasted that hour on something worse, like doing a 45min Baron run.
