This spooky season takes your coworking event to another level. With all the ghosts, vampires, and witches roaming around, don’t be scared.
Hosting a spooky Halloween celebration in your coworking space should be fun, not frightening. With a space full of treats, laughter, and costumes, it creates a vibe ready to bring all your coworkers together.
A space that offers you an opportunity to network in a not-so-traditional way. However, hosting a Halloween event in a coworking space differs from hosting any other corporate event. You need to prepare beforehand. Lucky for you at The Coworking Spaces, we have compiled an entire list for you to host the event of your life. Are you excited enough? Or one may say spooked enough; let's get started then!
Avoid holding the event on Halloween night itself. People have plans! No matter how deep they are in for the success of their business, they won't be coming back to the coworking space on Halloween.
Set a date before the day itself, preferably a weekday evening or weekend afternoon to draw the most crowd. Also, be clear about the start and end times of your event. This will build trust among potential members and manage expectations.
Theme or no theme? Well, it's a Halloween event, so of course there’ll be a theme! Set the tone of your event in the coworking space to attract the target audience. Is it adults only? Or are individuals allowed to bring their family?
This will also allow you to determine the “scare threshold” of your Halloween event. A few themes that you can go forward with are our zombie apocalypse, monster mash, and haunted mansion. You can also go for werewolves and vampires, and even true crime or movie/TV themes. The list is endless here!
Choosing a venue to host a Halloween event is a significant step. You can simply host it in your coworking space. But if you do want to set the spooky tone to another level, then event spaces are exactly what you need. The location is everything! You need an event space that is not only easily accessible but also spacious enough to host an entire coworking event.
Amenities such as attending staff, AV equipment, and catering services should be included in the space. Decoration, lighting, and restrooms are also important. Parking, internet staff, and flexible seating arrangements are a few more essential features. These should definitely be included within the space package. You can even find such event spaces at The Coworking Spaces. Thanks to the variety we have, they fit your event requirements just right.
No Halloween event is complete without a few spooky fun activities. It will keep your guests engaged and provide an opportunity to network in a fun, non-conventional way. Halloween-themed costume contests, movie marathons, and trivia nights are popular activities. Escape rooms, pumpkin carving, and cocktails are also great options. These are just a few proven hits for any Halloween event in a coworking space.
Hosting a Halloween event is a great strategy to promote a coworking space. However, people are most excited about the food and drinks at the end of the day. So why not make it even spookier? Finger sandwiches, Witch's Brew, and Ghostly Garlic Bread are a few good choices. Graveyard Cupcakes, Spider-Web Pizza, Zombie Juice, and vampire blood will also set the tone for your Halloween event.
Hosting a Halloween event in a coworking space is more than costumes and drinks. One has to look at the bigger picture. Networking and collaboration are an important part of building a business. However, it can be a challenging task one has to mentally prepare themselves for.
As a community manager, it's your responsibility to promote such connections. And what better way to do so is by hosting a Halloween event in a coworking space? One can make genuine, fun, and friendly connections with like-minded people without bringing up a business module. And that's the goal!
