Chinese translation:溫馨聚會
Explanation:

Just another suggestion. (There seems no fixed translation for "intimate" here.)

Please see the following example for reference:

「...大堂酒吧給人的感覺更為溫馨，也擁有更多具質感的細節...」

Notes to answerer
Asker: 谢谢帮忙！ 整句结构为：xxx活动 is an intimate event hosted by xxx. 整段内容是在介绍这个活动（注：该活动还未发生），所以好像这里翻译生气氛融洽似乎不是非常合适，因为活动还没举行。
