Systems and methods are provided herein for alerting a user about a media event using a home security application of the user. A media guidance application may determine that a media event is beginning at a given time, and may determine that a user whose profile indicates that the user would enjoy the media event is not consuming media corresponding to the media event at the given time. In response to determining that the user is not consuming the media at the given time, the media guidance application may access a home security application of the user, and may identify, using the home security application, the respective room within which the user is located at the given time. The media guidance application may then cause a speaker of a plurality of speakers that is within the respective room to alert the user that the media event is beginning.
