In real life

• Find a good spot or route with lots of spawn points
• Purchase the Community Day Special Research

In-game

• Stock up on Poké Balls and berries
• Prepare enough Pokémon storage space
• Check for a Campfire meetup with check-in bonuses
• Prepare a mega Pokémon for extra candy (use a Pokémon of the same type for extra candy XL too)
• Find some friends to form a party for:
  • shared items
  • reduced egg hatch distance
  • additional challenges and spawns

During the main event (2pm to 5pm)

• Incubate eggs for 1/4 hatch distance
• Activate a lucky egg for more XP
• Activate a star piece for more stardust
• Activate incense for more spawns
• Consider Roar of Time for additional item duration
• Activate a lure module for more spawns

• Fast catch to speed up catching
• Consider Pinap berries for additional candy

After the main event (5pm to 9pm)

• Look for lure parties to get additional spawns that still have boosted shiny and special background rates
• Trade with friends for more candy and to maybe get lucky trades
• Evolve your best Pokémon to get the community day special move
