Apartment Resident Event Ideas For September 2022
Kick off fall on a high note with fun and intriguing September events for all of your residents. Start planning now with inspiration from our apartment resident event ideas for September 2022.
Football Tailgate Party– September means the NFL and college football are officially back! Help residents celebrate the return of football with a tailgate party. This event can be held on a Saturday and Sunday. Try aligning the party with a game featuring local teams. Be sure to have the game on during the party. If you are expecting a big crowd, consider renting additional televisions or showing the game on a big screen using a projector. Serving traditional tailgate foods, like wings, nachos, meatballs, buffalo chicken dip, and more.
Sunday Brunch– This generation of young people enjoys every opportunity for brunch they can get! (And we don’t blame them.) As a multifamily property manager, one of the best resident event ideas for September 2022 that you can invest in is an extravagant Sunday brunch. We’re talking finger foods, classic brunch foods, and live music! Because the weather’s finally starting to cool down in September, use an outdoor common area to set up the brunch.
Wine & Cheese Mixer – Bring your apartment community together by hosting a relaxed evening of wine and cheese. The combination of wine and cheese is perfect because it’s relaxed with an edge of sophistication. Pair the different cheeses with various crackers, grapes, and spreads. Host the mixer in the lobby, greeting people with a glass of wine as they enter the building. Encourage those passing through the lobby to stay and engage with other guests. Increase the chances of engagement by providing games, a raffle, and a live acoustic performance. These elements will create a lighthearted atmosphere that’ll be difficult for guests to turn their back on.
Movie Night– Don’t forget to brainstorm event ideas for the families in your apartment building! An excellent way to get the kids of your building involved is by hosting a movie night. If your apartment complex has a large sitting room or theater, ask families to gather inside. They can even bring their own pillows and blankets to create more seating on the floor. Do you have a large lawn area? Host a movie night one evening by setting up a large projector and screen. Note: If you decide to host the movie night indoors, require early RSVPs from attending families to avoid overcrowding.
Sunrise Yoga – Take advantage of cooler morning temperatures by giving residents an opportunity to unwind with early morning yoga classes. Hire a local instructor and set up a space in the courtyard or other outdoor area. Be sure to have an indoor space prepared as backup in case the weather doesn’t permit an outdoor event.
September’s “National Day” Celebrations
Every month we highlight “National Days” that make for great apartment resident events and activities. All of these come from the National Day Calendar and are a great reason to have an event or activity for your apartment residents!
National College Colors Day on September 2nd: The Friday before Labor Day is national college color day. Encourage residents to wear their college colors and show off their alma mater to other residents.
National Cheese Pizza Day on September 5th: Help residents celebrate national cheese pizza day with a pizza party! Another fun idea is bringing in local pizza restaurants to participate in a taste test. Another fun way to celebrate this national day is with a pizza cooking class where residents get to make their own cheese pizzas.
National Clean Up Day on September 17th: This national day is all about making our community a better place. Encourage residents to participate by organizing a clean up at a local park or other common community space.
