Which holidays and clubs do you create for your game?

In the summer I will add a few days as a holiday and call it Summer Break. I will do the same in Winter, and call it Winter Break.

If you are looking for some ideas, I found quite a bit at these links.

I delete the premade holidays and make Halloween (costumes, decoration, trick or treat), sometimes Thanksgiving (thankful spirit and grand meal, NO gnomes..), Christmas, New Years, Valentines Day (all pretty standard), Easter (holiday ceremony, egg hunt and sometimes gardening), and Fourth of July (BBQ, water fun, fireworks, party spirt).

If the Sims I’m playing are not especially Americanised, they might miss some holidays... it all depends on the family I am playing at the time.

I haven’t really got the hang of the clubs yet..

As far as clubs, one thing I will do with them is to use the club system to bring my sim's extended family home to visit. So when the kids grow up, move out, and are living on their own, I can easily bring everyone back to visit and keep in contact with each other. I have even used the club system to get the children to do their homework, do chores, and easily get my larger families to do things together with each other.

Used the club system so that the children/teens in the family can easily invite their friends over and have a slumber party.

If I have a single parent who is raising their child alone, and the other parent is in the game. I will use the club system to bring the one not living in the household over so they can visit and interact with their child.

I didn't add many holidays, just a couple from my particular spirituality tradition.

I've added lots of clubs and keep adding more. I've created them for extended families. I have clubs for single Sims who want to date. I have clubs for musicians to jam together. I have a club called The Mothers of Invention, with Frank Zappa as the club leader. I have clubs for Sims to engage in spiritual traditions. I will soon be creating a cult/club for my elder who wants to be a cult leader. I have clubs for youth and for teens to hang out with each other. I have a club for all of a Sim's coworkers to get together and hang out after work. I have a chess club and a rocketry club. I have a club for people who want to act like frat guys. I have a club for more high-class drinkers. I have a club for actors to hang out together. I have clubs for all of a Sim's friends. I love clubs!

I added Easter and Halloween in some saves. I sometimes will make a kids club for my children with their friends, but I also made a book club with my mom sim where she made them brunch and then they read books and talked :)

I would usually just add Flowerfest as a holiday in spring, with the Flowerbunny and egg search. A couple of times I've also added a holiday in summer, with BBQ and water fun. I've also added costumes and trick&treat in a couple saves. Not really deleted any holidays, but I have mods to remove most of the random days, like Neighbourhood brawl and Rebate day. With only 7 days in a season, I don't want too many holidays. I usually forget to do the same changes in every save.

I've not created many clubs. I have a couple for some saves for my vampire friends to meet up and party/hang out/work on skills. There are only 3-4 existing clubs that are not useless, so my sims don't join clubs much.

Wow, these are some great club ideas! :smile:

I don't have seasons, but I have used the club system for awhile, I cheat, it guess, I just use the clubs already hidden in the game for a lot of my clubs, found here:

https://sims.fandom.com/wiki/Club_%28The_Sims_4:_Get_Together%29

The clubs I came up with are centered on bowling:

Teen Tin Pins
Requirements: Open invitation, Teens only
Club hangout: Blowling Alley lot
Club activities: Go Bowling
Description: Bored with life in the slow lane in the 'burbs? If you are feeling lucky, strike out on your own in your spare the time, and have a ball with us.

The Bowling Stones
Requirements: Open invitation, Men Only
Club hangout: Blowling Alley lot
Club activities: Go Bowling
Description: You can't always get what you want in life, but if you are suffering from the summertime blues, use your imagination and let us come to your emotional rescue. Stop waiting on a friend and get some satisfaction with us.

The Rolling Pins
Requirements: Open invitation, Women only
Club hangout: Blowling Alley lot
Club activities: Go Bowling
Description: Do you knead to get out of the kitchen? Don't do anything half-baked, join us, you won't knead a lot of dough and we're as wholesome as apple pie.

I haven't used clubs much but I'd like to remember that they are there and start incorporating them more. Although I do have a Magic Council Club I set up for the Sages and a couple of other spellcasters I don't play. One of my Sims got invited to the club so I invited them over for a club meeting, somehow my entire house did not burn down in the course of seven fires being set (firefighters weren't in the game yet).

On the other hand, I have quite a few holidays. I added in an Earth Day, Sim National (Fourth of July), Spookfest, Harvestfest, Winterfest Eve, Winterfest, New Year's Eve, New Years Day, Love Day, St. Gnomes Day (St. Patrick's Day), Also I chose a day out of each season to act as an appropriate break from school and Spookfest, Winterfest, and New Years all have a day set aside for decorating for each holiday as well. I play with my seasons as 14 days long to help space everything out a bit.
