It is important for the community of an apartment to spend time together. Here is a list of 7 apartment resident event ideas to bring everyone together.
Are you an apartment manager looking for ways to bring your tenants and neighbors together for something other than community meetings? Those things sure can be boring.
These days, people need more reasons to get to know the people living around them. Thankfully, there are simple ways to make this happen by hosting apartment community events.
Here are 7 of the best resident event ideas that are sure to have your apartment community get to know each other.
Resident Event Ideas
1) Super Bowl Party
Superbowl parties are some of the most frequented sporting events. People enjoy the big game by tailgating, which is highly social. This allows you to also play games like Football Squares for small prizes.
2) Ice Cream Social
A classic mixer, everyone loves ice cream! You have the option between ‘build your own sundae’ or if you have space, hosting an ice cream making class.
3) Poker/Casino Night
Who doesn’t like losing all their money at the craps table? Well, luckily, this would not be necessary.
With a poker night, you could give your tenants ‘funny money’ to use throughout the night while giving away prizes for their earnings or even bust prizes for their strings of bad luck.
4) Movie Night
Another classic mixer, movie nights can be dressed up; however, you would like. It can be as relaxed as a pajama party-theme or as prestigious as a red carpet event.
This resident event gives great versatility to cater to your tenants and neighbors.
5) Luau
Nothing is more fun than a Hawaiian-themed party that can double as a pool party.
Break out the tiki torches, colorful leis, and grass skirts for an afternoon or evening next to the water while allowing your residents to get to know each other.
6) Arcade/Video Game Party
In this day and age, the chances are that the majority of your tenants like to play video games.
Hosting a tournament for the best players in the community would generate camaraderie and also expose others to classic games if you choose to rent the arcade consoles.
7) Christmas/Holiday Party
Bring in the holiday spirit through Christmas/Winter Holiday parties.
This can involve many different activities such as bake-offs, ugly sweater contests, or even secret Santa, all geared toward building relationships between tenants.
