White House Easter Egg Roll 2025: Tradition Meets Corporate Sponsorship

 



The White House lawn is set to welcome thousands of families today for the annual Easter Egg Roll, a cherished tradition dating back to 1878. President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will preside over the event, marking the first Easter Egg Roll of Trump's second term. Despite a forecast of scattered showers, spirits remain high as 40,000 attendees prepare for a day of fun and festivities.

The day promises to blend history, community, and innovation, making it a memorable celebration for all. However, the introduction of corporate sponsorships has sparked debate, with critics questioning the ethics of branding a White House tradition.
