9 Engaging Interactive Event Ideas Worth Trying
Interactive event idea #1: Social photo booths
A century after the first selfie was taken, smartphones and social media have transformed the photograph into a cultural phenomenon. And thanks to social photo booths, your event can stay relevant in the age of Instagram
Interactive event idea #2: Campfire session
A room full of people quietly listening to a speaker drone on doesn’t resonate with today’s event-goer. That’s why many events are turning to new speaking formats to satisfy attendees.
One such format is campfire sessions. These sessions are led by a facilitator who guides the discussion with one or more experts. Lasting about 30 minutes, these real-time conversations are more engaging and laid-back than formal presentations.
Interactive event idea #6: Customizable swag stations
People love free stuff, but only if it’s actually something they want. Most giveaways end up in the trash can because they’re not useful. A customizable swag station is a surefire way to send them home with swag they’ll keep.For example, a caricature artist who captures your attendees’ likeness is more likely to help them remember their experience than a branded fidget spinner.
Interactive event idea #7: Contests
A little friendly competition can liven up your event in no time. Some fun ideas include a scavenger hunt, caption contest, or even a pub-quiz-style trivia game focused on questions about your event’s focus or theme. Weave the contest into your event for maximum impact.
Interactive event idea #9: Responsive flooring
How often do people look down at the floor they’re walking on? It’s one of the most overlooked surfaces at an event venue. Use a responsive flooring at your event, such as LED, to interact with attendees in unusual and delightful ways. If LED floor tiles are beyond your budget, though, you can also consider using projection.

How Social Photo Booths Are Changing the Event Experience
We live in a snap-happy world. Every second, 806 photos are uploaded to Instagram and 8,796 shared on Snapchat. People don’t just want to experience things in real life, they also want to share these unique and fun moments with their friends and family online.
So it’s not surprising that social photo opportunities are changing the event experience — and even giving rise to a new type of “Instagrammable” events. Events like Color Factory and Museum of Ice Cream have both taken Instagram by storm, largely because of their photo opportunities.
If you want to keep up, you need to provide the personalized, photo-friendly experiences fans crave. Here’s how you can use social photo booths to stay relevant in the age of Instagram.
