Hey there,

Georgi from Cobot here!

We've been blessed with a week of very warm spring days in Berlin 🇩🇪 and everyone is buzzing for outdoor activities (I even had my first outdoor swim of the year over the weekend 🏊).

So I am taking this opportunity to brainstorm (gosh, I hate this word) a couple of outdoor event ideas for your coworking space that you can bring to life this summer (or late spring).

And big thanks to Evie for curating most of this list 😊

Flea Market 🧥🌱

A big part of what makes the coworking movement great is the social and environmental responsibility, translated in practice through the local impact each space creates.

Organizing an event which encourages members and new visitors to give life back to pre-loved clothes or other items is a very natural way to express the values of your space and show your local community what coworking really means (without having to go on a 2-minute monologue, followed by “Doesn't WeWork do the same??”)

Of course, you can also do it in the cold months, but doesn't an outfit always shine better in the sun? 😏

Scavenger Hunt 🏴‍☠️

Here's a fun and interactive way to show your space to new potential members and boost the communal spirit of your already existing ones.

Organize a scavenger hunt and announce it to your local community (Read more about local advertising with flyers, banners, and posters here).

Separate people in teams (great for the companies renting offices/desks at your space) and include questions, puzzles, and facts about your space and community along the way.

The prize at the end doesn't have to be huge. How about something that represents your space and values, or something you created yourself?

(Tiny) Pool Party 🎉

Buy or rent a small inflatable pool for a few sunny days. It's a great way for your coworkers to cool off during the hot days. You can even cool off drinks inside the pool 🤫

BONUS Ideas ⭐️

Open-air movie night 🍿 (you can rent a projector instead of buying one)
Coworking observatory 🔭 (you'll need to find a small telescope and someone interested in astronomy)
Barbecue (that's an obvious one, but everyone loves it)
Bonfire 🔥 (don't forget the scary stories)
Outdoor workout event/yoga session 🤸‍♀️
