As we look forward to the holiday season, our team at Eventzee wants to take this time to support and raise awareness for independent shop owners across the country on Small Business Saturday (the Saturday after Thanksgiving). This nationwide movement to help small businesses is a great marketing initiative, and Eventzee can help you take engagement even further with personalized scavenger hunts. To get you started, here are a few ideas for using the Eventzee scavenger hunt app this November and beyond!
Downtown Adventures
The few days after a big Thanksgiving meal are perfect for encouraging people to come and walk around your local downtown area. Team up with other local businesses to create a virtual passport using the Eventzee scavenger hunt app and offer prizes to participants who get out and visit multiple businesses in your city.
Eventzee client Downtown Center Business Improvement District (DCBID) of Los Angeles, California, used the Eventzee scavenger hunt app last year to encourage residents and visitors to explore local businesses and landmarks of Downtown LA. Dialing up the fun and encouraging patronage of the area’s small businesses in recognition of Small Business Saturday was a hit with locals and visitors alike.
The scavenger hunt could be completed within a few hours, and tasked players to use the Eventzee app to complete tasks and challenges throughout the city. Participants stopped by landmarks and businesses including iconic sites such as Walt Disney Concert Hall, The Broad and Grand Central Market and small businesses in the Jewelry District, The Bloc and FIG@7th.
Take a cue from our friends in Downtown LA and bring Eventzee to your area this Fall! Combine the immersive scavenger hunt experience with local discounts for even more engagement!
Discounts and Deals
Bring out the masses by offering deals, coupons, and discounts for those who choose to participate in your Small Business Saturday event! It’s likely that the small businesses will already be offering their own discounts during the busiest shopping season of the year, but additional offers will encourage people to join the event and visit more shops and businesses.
Using a virtual passport system with Eventzee, players can earn discount codes as badges for completing various challenges. This will encourage more engagement with a variety of businesses and award players for their dedication.
Keep them Coming Back
Many Eventzee clients offer players a small prize after the event concludes, like a gift card to be spent within the city at participating locations. This can include local shops, restaurants, or attractions. A monetary prize encourages participants to be excited about the prospect of returning to the town at a later date.
This past October, Downtown Jacksonville, FL, used Eventzee for their Halloweek event, which encouraged all attendees to scan at least 10 QR codes into the Eventzee app, and then rewarded all who completed the event a $20 #DTJax e-Gift Card.
Offering prizes not only encourages participation, but also drives home repeat business and small business camaraderie between shop owners.
Make it an Event!
While Small Business Saturday is usually just one day, that doesn’t mean you can’t make it into a bigger celebration. After Thanksgiving, people look forward to tree lightings, holiday lights exploring, holiday shopping, and more. Expand your Small Business Saturday into December and use the Eventzee scavenger hunt app to inform people of upcoming events.
Regardless of what your Small Business Saturday event looks like, Eventzee is here to support you in making it the best event yet! For more information and to get in touch, contact Craig Holland, sales@eventzeeapp.com.

We’re happy to report that Gen Con 2023 was a whirlwind of excitement and innovation for tabletop gaming enthusiasts! Amidst the bustling crowds and array of games, Doomlings, the exciting card game that brings quirky creatures to life, stood out from the crowd! How, you might be asking? By teaming up with the Eventzee App! This collaboration between Doomlings and Eventzee massively elevated the experience for attendees which led to a substantial increase in booth traffic for Doomlings.
Doomlings has always been about delivering an immersive and interactive gaming experience, and teaming up with Eventzee proved to be the perfect partnership to achieve this goal! The combination of Doomlings’ whimsical world and Eventzee’s cutting-edge scavenger hunt platform was the perfect fit to enable Doomlings to shine at Gen Con, and to draw in thousands of attendees to their booth.
Doomlings leveraged Eventzee’s capabilities to create a series of engaging challenges and activities that seamlessly integrated with their booth setup. Attendees were invited to embark on a journey through the Doomlings universe by exploring the convention area, hunting for over-sized character cards with QR codes. Players scanned the QR cards to qualify for prizes, such as taking a free spin at a giant pinwheel located at the Doomlings booth. This gamified approach transformed booth traffic into an exciting quest, encouraging attendees to fully explore the Doomlings experience!
The challenges and activities weren’t just fun diversions; they were carefully crafted to offer attendees an interactive learning experience. As participants tackled the challenges, they gained a deeper understanding of Doomlings’ gameplay mechanics, lore, and intricacies. This interactive learning approach not only made booth traffic more meaningful but also ensured that attendees left with a profound connection to the game.
“Doomlings’ use of the Eventzee App at Gen Con 2023 was a total game-changer,” said Chief Operations Officer Eric McCoy. “By transforming booth traffic into an immersive quest, we not only showcased the unique charm of our game, but also set a new standard for engaging with our fans at future conventions.”

William Wagner of People Working Better Together says that:
I am a big proponent of helping people learn and compete. This app provides that ability. The locations we went into when using this app were extremely happy as well as we brought about 50 people into these locations when they had maybe 5 before we showed up. I think our people also liked going to these places as they were not as familiar with the places and got to experience them.
That’s where Eventzee came into the picture! With our user-friendly interface and customizable features, Eventzee proved to be the ideal choice.

Whether it was adding new challenges on the go or modifying the event timeline, Eventzee offered the necessary flexibility to create a dynamic and engaging experience.

Eventzee was honoured to go to battle at Warhammer Fest 2023, a huge tabletop wargames convention, that saw thousands of fans gather to celebrate all things Warhammer. Among the activities on offer was an immersive scavenger hunt experience realised through the power of Eventzee.
Hosted by Games Workshop, the manufacturer of Warhammer and a variety of other tabletop games, the biggest official Warhammer event of 2023 took place at Manchester Central Convention Complex in England where attendees found themselves exploring a variety of areas dedicated to different event activities. The 3 day event included live previews, tournament areas, a board game cafe, and of course a scavenger hunt.
Eventzee enhanced the Warhammer Fest experience by introducing a scavenger hunt where players could interact with real world set pieces and locate hidden QR codes throughout the convention complex. Within Eventzee’s powerful scavenger hunt app, Games Workshop was able to craft an immersive experience over the course of three days.
Numerous factions do battle in the Warhammer universe, and the scavenger hunt was themed around two of these. Scavenger hunt players had to choose their allegiance: either the the uncompromising human Imperium, or the alien-worshipping Brotherhood Cultists. Based on the players’ allegiance, they participated in unique challenges throughout the Eventzee-based portion of the Warhammer event. Each player was tasked with locating 10 QR code challenges per day at the venue, which were hidden among impressive, lifesize recreations of some of the game’s well known settings.
The unique props and interactive set pieces were brought to life by EPH Creative, an event prop designing group who truly took Eventzee to new heights. Players had to traverse the interactive settings and hunt down the QR codes, which were sneakily hidden among armoury lockers, chemical pits, and battleground debris. This combination of physical props and digital gameplay was a unique new experience that proved a hit with the thousands of players who took part.
With each completed day within the Eventzee app, the players earned 1 piece of a 3 part badge. If players were dedicated enough to earn all three pieces by the end of the weekend, they were rewarded with a unique metal event pin bringing together all 3 pieces to create one pin badge. The highly sought after real world prize was a badge of honour for the players that completed the hunt.
The Games Workshop team created one of the most unique events that Eventzee has ever taken part in. Offering a high-value prize, such as the unique event pin badge, encouraged thousands of players to jump into the scavenger hunt app event. Thousands of attendees participated in completing the challenge!
Warhammer Fest 2023 utilised the Eventzee scavenger hunt app to engage attendees with the event on a different level, exploring all parts of the venue, interacting with displays, and engaging with other event attendees. Thank you to Games Workshop and EPH Creative for making this event a truly memorable experience for everyone involved.

This past February, Beaver Creek Resort Company utilized Freeze Tag’s Eventzee scavenger hunt app for the 2023 Talons Challenge, a skiing event encompassing the toughest runs throughout the resort. Beaver Creek Resort Company is a Colorado government based organization, designed to support the tourism and management of the Beaver Creek village.
Using the Eventzee scavenger hunt app, skiers who paid to participate in Talons Challenge were faced with the demanding task of completing all 14 of the toughest black and double black diamonds runs throughout Beaver Creek Resort, adding up to over 26,000 feet of vertical trail.
Within the app, skiers were tasked with scanning QR codes located on each of the runs throughout the resort to track their progress. Participants in the challenge choose to complete the event all into one tough day of fun, or participate in the daunting “Master of the Mountain” to complete the Talons Challenge twice over the course of the weekend.
“We were so excited to be partnering with Beaver Creek for this year’s Talons Challenge,” said Craig Holland, CEO of Freeze Tag. “The Eventzee scavenger hunt app is perfect for this event’s unique terrain and our QR code scanning feature surely helped players track their progress as they tackled these demanding runs.”
Finishers of all 14 black and double black diamond runs were awarded with a prize and a finisher patch, in addition to a sense of accomplishment and “bragging rights”. Finishers of the “Master of the Mountain” received a trophy, and additional premium SWAG.
