Top 5 Multifamily Summer Events

Summer is the perfect time to throw an event at your multifamily community, but how does a management team handle all the logistics without the stress? Read on to find out how to plan the best events each month starting this summer. 

Consider Your Community

Summer themed events are just the start to a well-organized annual events calendar that residents connect with, and more importantly, attend. Management teams that have successfully balanced the right amount of events with social distancing requirements rely on experienced event managers that understand the residents, the budget, and the community’s space. Consider polling residents to understand what opportunities pique their interests, or check out what local competitors are doing to attract their target audience. 

Consider Your Space

Experiential highrise living typically offers events centered around pre-designed spaces in the community, such as a cooking class in a chef’s kitchen, live music in an outdoor piazza, or a billiards tournament in the game lounge. Elevated Living event managers approach spaces with a fresh eye, and are able to imagine events outside the traditional scope in flex spaces. The secret to amazing events is having enough help to plan, execute, and clean up!

The best multifamily event managers understand the connections people make in a specific location, affect their feelings toward that place.

Consider Your Team

For most multifamily property teams, planning and executing weekly events is overwhelming in addition to daily tasks. Management teams are already stretched to the limit with a list that can include scheduling maintenance throughout the community, tracking paperwork and leases, touring and engaging prospects and current residents, and keeping updated on local and state laws that affect residents and owners alike. Allowing event planning to fall by the wayside means playing catch-up to keep residents engaged with your building. Property teams who use event managers know a positive atmosphere keeps residents happy.

Summer is a great time to get your residents out of their buildings and into the sun, no pool necessary. Consider these top 5 events your team can still schedule into the last days of summer with an Elevated Living event manager.

5 - Dog & Pet Parent Bars

Bring your pet parents and their fur kids out for an interactive get-together where dogs get to choose from an assortment of treats and toys while humans pick their favorite treats from a snack and drink buffet.

4 - Live Music & Dinner Buffet

Whether it’s a single violinist or a 5-piece mariachi band, live music always makes an impact in your building. Pair it with a brunch or dinner buffet, and it’s sure to be a crowd pleasing event!

3 - Outdoor Movie Night

Pick a family favorite, get the popcorn machine ready, and watch your residents come out to enjoy a movie night under the stars. The key is to think about how you want this outdoor experience to feel and then design accordingly.

2 - Craft Cocktail Class with Local Mixologist 

Blend an interactive event with skills that your residents will use at their next event. Bring it all together with a craft cocktail class hosted by a local professional that knows how to teach the art of mixing and mingling.

1 - Brunch with Live Chef & Mimosa Bar

A themed brunch with an interactive chef can help your residents feel like they're part of a unique and extraordinary community. Add a build-your-own mimosa bar to any exhibition cooking event for even more smiles.
