To help you spread the word about the Welcome Weekend, we’ve created some template posts for different social media platforms. You can use these to talk about your event on social media and spread the feeling of welcome online.
The more personal your post, the more it resonates — so feel free to adapt the copy to match your own voice, experience, or community. If you're holding an event over the Welcome Weekend, add your own photos of people, activities or posters.
Let's get started:
Taking your own photos of events is always best, but we also have social media graphics that you can use to celebrate the Welcome Weekend. Download below to add them to your posts.
