In my city, usually the Muslim community rent a sports arena so that everyone can participate in eid prayers, because the main mosque isn't big enough to hold everyone.
I think for Eid Al Adha, families usually arrange for a halal butcher to kill an animal for them because they can't do it at home.
I notice that Muslim immigrants often celebrate the eids with people from their native countries, Kurds with Kurds, Somalis with Somalis, Persians with Persians, etc.
Last year the Utah Islamic Association and the Jewish Community Center worked together to provide Christmas gifts for some poor families. It was a great example of religions working together.
