Drive-Through Events: A Wave of The Future?

May 26th, 2020

As social distancing is becoming the wave of the future, events have moved to the virtual world. During the shelter in place guidelines, it’s been refreshing to attend virtual concerts, birthdays, and so much more. This makes sense temporarily, however, there is an innate need for humans to connect with each other face to face.

How can we make this come to life in a world with COVID-19 and no vaccine? How about a drive-through event?

Drive-Through Events: Graduation

Upon having a conversation with one of our creative clients, it seemed that she came to a realization. In her case, she was developing an idea to honor and celebrate her students at graduation. Why not create a ‘drive through’ event complete with custom 2020 décor? Students will drive by this event and take pictures and videos in front of a 2020 school themed backdrop – one by one, six feet apart, or even in their cars. That way a memory will be created and etched in her students minds forever of their 2020 graduation. A unique solution for an unprecedented time. Discussing events like this made us excited again! We are so lucky to have clients who are incredibly creative and supportive during this trying time.

Drive-Through Events: Food & Cultural Festivals

As more and more people are yearning to attend events again, a drive-through concept may be the band-aid we can all look forward to. Imagine filling parking lots with socially distanced cars, a myriad of food vendors offering delicious bites, an assortment of drive-in movies, and musical acts. If you live in New York City, you’re in luck. Read more here. Hopefully there will be more of these in many other locations as well!

As we navigate this new normal, know that we are here through it all. Please be safe and be healthy.
