People don’t come to a coworking space only to work – this is also a great place to find a community of like-minded people. When you meet and engage with people who share your interests and vision for success, you open doors for collaboration and cross-marketing. There are plenty of fun activities you can do in a coworking space to find your tribe. Here are a few ideas.
8 Fun Activities you can do in Coworking Spaces
- Breakfast Meet & Greet
- Yoga Sessions
- Game Night
- Workshops
- Milestone Celebrations
- Demo Day
- Speed Networking
- Club Night
1. Breakfast Meet & Greet
Everybody loves good food and a meal is a great opportunity to bring people together.
Breakfast is an important meal that’s often overlooked. Once a fortnight, invite everyone to start the day about half an hour earlier and meet up for breakfast. Starting earlier ensures that nobody feels they’re missing out on productive hours. This is a great opportunity for new members to be introduced to the community. You don’t need to have a very expansive spread – simple food and coffee goes a long way.

2. Yoga Sessions
This is one of the fun things in coworking offices that makes people healthier, happier and more productive.
Yoga is an easy way to get fit without the hassle of gym equipment and machines. It’s also a calming experience – ideal for a Wednesday evening after work. Host a yoga wellness session once a week and invite everyone to join in. Having an instructor to lead the class will make it a well-structured event and inspire more people to attend.
Apart from helping people squeeze a workout into their day, these sessions can also act as ice breakers.
3. Game Night
Game night is one of the most popular things to do in coworking spaces. Games bring people together, encourage strangers to talk and bring out everyone’s competitive side. You can either host game night with games that everyone can play together like Pictionary or Dumb charades or set up a few board games where smaller groups can interact and play together.
Minute-to-win-it-style games can be a lot of fun too! There’s no right or wrong game but two-player games may not have the impact you’re looking for – look for games that can be played by at least 4-6 people.
4. Workshops
Today, you can learn most things online through videos and virtual classes but it’s always more fun to learn a new skill together with other people. That’s why workshops are a good idea for fun activities in coworking spaces.
You can host workshops related to productivity skills like using new software or how to use social media marketing or for something completely unrelated to work -who wouldn’t want to attend a bartending workshop? A hands-on workshop takes the pressure of networking and socializing off and at the same time is an opportunity to mingle.
5. Milestone Celebrations
From freelancers and entrepreneurs to established businesses, growth never comes easily. There’s a lot of work that goes into every small step towards achieving success. So, every step needs to be celebrated. It could be a freelancer getting a new project, a software development agency that launched a new product, an e-commerce business that expanded its services to a new country.
Celebrating achievements like this keep motivation levels high and inspires everyone on the floor to work harder towards their own goals. A personalized cake is an easy way to celebrate and include everyone.

6. Demo Day
One of the key benefits of coworking is a wide, diverse audience to test products before they’re launched in the market. The initial feedback from testers can go a long way in improving the final product and increasing its market value.
While some people may have the confidence to walk up to a stranger and pitch their idea, others may be a little shy. So, give them a platform to demonstrate their product and talk about it. There’s no infrastructure required for this – all you need to do is set some time aside and let the demonstrators sign up.
7. Speed Networking
Networking is a lot like dating – you’ve got to put yourself out there and hope the other person likes what they see. Speed dating is a popular concept where attendees get limited time to impress another person.
Speed networking follows the same concept. While some attendees sit at tables, others circulate from table to table. Speed networking helps people polish their pitches and lets them share their ideas with a lot of people in a limited time.
8. Club Night
Everyone needs balance in their lives but often we’re so focused on work that we forget about hobbies. One way to correct this imbalance is to start a few clubs. You can start a book club for people who like to read, a running club, a travel club and so on.
Each club can have its own schedule and rules. The core idea is to push people to make time for things other than work and to help them connect with others through their shared interests.
There are plenty of other fun activities to participate in at coworking spaces. Some coworking spaces may also organize events and activities outside the coworking unit. While it may seem just like fun, these events and activities can have a huge impact on how your business takes off. So, make sure you ask about them when you’re comparing coworking units.
