Last Updated:
Similar to Holidays, there are events that we can go to in real life in order to celebrate a commemoration. In the Sims 4: Seasons, your Sims can also participate in events, as well as plan them and have specific activities that you can create. Events can also be seen as parties in the Sims 4, they provide you with a way for your Sims to interact with one another and grow their relationships.
In this guide, we’ll be checking the different events that you can expect in the Sims 4. With the Calendar feature, you’re able to create custom events on specific days of a Season, it’s a good way for you to make something creative and have certain themes according to your liking. Let’s check the events that you can expect from this feature.
Aside from Holidays, events can be checked through specific icons that you will see in the Calendar. The left side of the calendar menu will provide you with the details of an event including its duration, as well as the activities that you’ll be able to participate in. Your social events can be held at home, and thankfully in the Sims 4, the police won’t come anymore in case the party gets a little bit too noisy. You must also take note that Sims holding events must know who they’re inviting, so some interaction with other sims prior will be beneficial.
Select an Activity: From there, you’ll get to see a list of different social events that your sims can participate in. Getting successful events can provide you with rewards, so you can consider events as challenges as well.
There are different social events listed, and getting other expansion packs can also provide you with more types. Goaled events provide you with the rewards, so once you have chosen your event just click the arrow button in order to look invite your sims.
Invite Sims: The next step is to invite Sims to your house. A minimum of 2 guests are required, and take note that your Sim must have interacted with other sims in order for them to be applicable as guests. Before creating a party, it would be best for you to let your sims mingle with other sims, especially if you want specific guests.
There are roles during events such as the entertainer, caterer, and mixologist. They can impress other sims with their talents so they don’t get bored, the sims can eat and drink as well when called upon. You can invite sims that you know who have these skills, or you can hire a random sim and get to create new friends as well.
Select a Place and Time: Once all Sims have been invited, you’ll then need to choose the location and the event time. This can be households that you have created, or there can be lots that you can assign for the community. If you invite more sims, having a bigger lot with more tables and chairs could be better.
Selecting the time will let you throw a party immediately, or during a specified time. Take note however, that you should be mindful if your Sim is at work or not, or else they can miss out the event. Letting your Sim schedule an event in a later time will enable you to make preparations if necessary.
Some events have specific Requirements based on the type of event such as birthday cakes for a birthday party, or food and table space for a dinner party. Here are some times that you can follow when you create events.
Ensure that you have enough space for your guests. This includes places where you can sit at the table in order for everyone to mingle, as well as have food.
Have the necessary appliances on hand. If you hire a caterer and mixologist, you’ll need a place where they can cook as well as make drinks such as the stove, refrigerator, and counter.
Space your items well. You’ll want your sims to be able to get their food and drinks nearby. If you have a big lot, try not placing your kitchen and counter for drinks too far from where the guests are.
Manage the number of guests in relation to how much hosts you have. Having too much guests with little hosts can make it difficult for them to achieve their goals.
Provide music where the Sims are. Having a radio, speaker set, piano, or juke box can help entertain them so they won’t get bored.
Prepare some food and drinks in advanced. Even if you hire a caterer and mixologist, your sims can do those as well just before the event starts. Prepare a Birthday Cake or Wedding cake since these are some of the Requirements for those types of events.
Your hosts will help you to achieve your goals so try to make them do the specific tasks that are listed in the goals. The timer will flash red if you’re nearly out of time, and you’ll see if your main goal has been completed or not.
Events can be treated as mini-games in order for you to achieve specific types of goals. It’s a good way for you to hold some celebrations that can tie in to the game’s different seasons as well. Being able to set and decorate your surroundings can help bring your event to life. You can event share your creations to the game’s gallery feature. We hope that this guide has helped you with the different events of the game. You can also check our other guides such as the ones below:
