A Customized And Amazing Murder Mystery Experience...
Our private murder mystery extravaganza is an enthralling experience that begins with a fantastic dinner before quickly transforming into a murder mystery. Your group will become sleuths, setting their metaphorical magnifying glasses to the trail of a calculated mystery committed by someone in the room. But beware, as one of the guests will meet an unexpected demise! Our creative team will set the stage for an exciting evening of crime investigation, where everyone is a suspect and anyone can be the killer.
An Immersive Real-Time Crime Unlike Anything Else...
This interactive group experience is like no other, and our murder mystery detective game's role-playing feature is an excellent way for guests to break the ice. Guests can work together or separately to crack the case, with the goal of identifying the murderer and bringing them to justice. The best answer will receive the coveted award of Top Sleuth! By working together to solve the mystery, your group will create new memories and become a better team.
Let Your Team Crack This Case... If They Can!
Our exclusive murder mystery dinner party is a true crime-worthy experience, where suspending your disbelief and getting caught up in the commotion is easy. Guests must piece together the crime based on the evidence they've been given, with everyone in the room as a possible suspect. Not everyone is eager to assist, so will you be able to track down and convict the perpetrator?
This activity is perfect for team-building events or more personal events, and can accommodate groups of any size, from 30 to 400 people. With 20 years of experience and hundreds of booked events each year at 90+ international locations, The Dinner Detective Murder Mystery Dinner Show is the ultimate 'whodunit' event, with enthralling atmosphere and top-notch improvisational performances. Get ready for an evening packed with laughter, suspense, and fatal consequences!

By having you and a few members of your group meet with The Dinner Detective cast before the event, it’s easy for you to become accomplices in the mystery. We use your guests’ sense of trust in you to our advantage. Each co-conspirator will work with a cast member to formulate a background story summarizing how you know one another, when you first met, and other key details. This background story will be a key ingredient to pulling off your acquaintanceship with this particular cast member. By introducing an actor to someone in your party as a friend, acquaintance or distant relative, you give them a legitimate reason to be at your function. You’d be surprised how easily your guests will buy your story!
Another way we customize and add a sense of personalization to the script is to acquire as much “dirt” on the most outgoing members of your group as possible, and paint a cloud of suspicion over them throughout the evening. Once we establish a sense of guilt in the air, we can roast these individuals throughout the evening.
