  2. These days, having a community doesn’t only refer to the people who live around you. A community could be people you work with, attend school with, or who have similar interests. Your community also includes your friends and family. For whatever reason, like the pandemic or living out of state, we don’t always get to spend one-on-one time. But thanks to the internet, we are able to find new ways to connect through online cultural events. Some are brand new, and others are traditional – with a twist.  Depending on how big your community is, you can choose one host to coordinate all your events, or you could split the responsibility to make things easier for everyone.  So, whichever community you are looking to bond with, there are a plethora of ideas to choose from. In this blog, we have listed ninef un virtual cultural events to try. 

  3. 1. Movie Nights With Your Community

  4. A movie night is one of the best ways to spend time with loved ones. You can use a streaming service like Netflix to bring everyone together. Last year, they introduced Netflix Party, a feature that allows a group of people to stream a movie together. It has now evolved into Teleparty, and accommodates Netflix, Disney, Hulu and HBO. This guarantees fun for the entire group – regardless of age or taste! If you are often not together, consider making your movie nights a regular event. 

  5. 2. Host a Cyber Cookalong for Your Online Cultural Events If you want to spice up your community with some online cultural exploration – try a virtual cookalong. Cookalongs have become famous the world over, as people get to learn new cuisine without leaving their homes. Instead of roping in a professional to do it, have each member of your community host one themselves. They can show the group what their favorite cultural dish is, and how to prepare it. It serves as a fun way to bond with the people in your community and to learn more about them. Depending on the size of your community, you could have a taste of food from each continent! 

  6. 3. Pick Teams for an Online Pub Quiz  Traditional pub quizzes have always been popular, and just because you aren’t at the bar, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have one anyway. It is a wonderful, hilarious way to bring people together for the sake of general knowledge. You can choose different themes, mix and match groups, and incorporate spot prizes. If your community has a specific interest, we suggest having different themes based on it. For example, if your community loves sports, divide the themes up into football, basketball and baseball. You can of course add as many subjects as you’d like. 

  7. 4. Kick off Your Weekend With a Virtual Happy Hour This is the perfect idea if your community is a group of students or co-workers. Winding down your week with your favorite beverage is one of life’s little pleasures. If you are online learning or working from home, schedule an hour session to ring in the weekend together. Each person can sign in to the call with their drink, and the group can discuss highlights from the week, or what their weekend plans are. 

  8. 5. Or How About a Meditation Session?

  9. Rather than starting the weekend with a tipple, how about winding down the week with a cultural online meditation event? Release the stress of the week and get ready for a great weekend by getting a mindfulness expert to guide you and your community in meditation, breathing exercises, balancing your chakras and increasing your awareness. Sessions can be hosted on zoom or any suitable virtual platform. 

  10. 6. Virtual Book Club  For the bookworms, a virtual book club is a great way to stay close to your community. This is for those who like spending time with their neighbors but can’t always do it in person, or for friends scattered across the country. Having the same taste in books is great, but it becomes even more interesting when the members bring in fresh, exciting reads. It will give the group the opportunity to explore new genres they may enjoy too. 

  11. 7. Tasting Wine

  12. This is an especially fun idea for those who want to experience something cultural, but aren’t quite keen to leave home or live far from wine farms. A wine tasting doesn’t have to be super formal, especially among a group of friends. One person in the community can choose to host the virtual wine tasting and arrange that each person has the required wine at home. This can be a great way to celebrate a birthday or even a public holiday. 

  13. 8. Games Night for Online Cultural Events Nothing says community like a games night. Most famous in single-family households, game nights are often done to spend quality time together. You could do a games night on a virtual event platform like Zoom, which allows you to have breakaway rooms. These rooms can be used if you would like to have people be part of teams for each game. 

  14. 9. Virtual Karaoke Session  Everyone loves a good karaoke night, and what better than to belt it out in your home where nobody can judge you? Well, besides your other friends taking part virtually. Karaoke is an awesome way to unwind and sing out some of your favorite tunes. It’s also great because anyone can take part, which is convenient if you have children or younger ones in the home who would like to join in the fun. Make it even more fun by including themes like Disney anthems, or best boy bands. 

  15. Hosting cultural events online is a great way to stay in touch and get closer to your community. Regardless of whether they are friends, neighbors, family or colleagues, being in contact is important. Online cultural events are also a great way to introduce new members of a community to the greater group, and make them feel at home. To keep up the momentum, aim to host an event like this at least once a month, as people may become disinterested if it hardly happens.  There is also the option of it being hosted too frequently, so make sure to keep people’s schedules and free time in mind before suggesting the next event.
