Private Murder Mystery Birthday Party – Venue Arranged

If you’re looking for a night of thrills suitable for any number of guests, a venue-arranged private murder mystery birthday party is perfect.

Our Birthday Bonanza plot has been written explicitly for birthday parties, with the birthday boy or girl taking centre stage as the story’s star and guests dressing up to role-play the suspects!

Learn About The Plot

Theme: 1920’s Gangsterland!

The story centres on Belle or Beau Bounty (played by the birthday boy or girl), owner of the internationally renowned Bounty’s Back parlour speakeasy to the stars, in downtown Chicago, USA. It’s the height of prohibition, and their friends, Amy Wino, Tina Turncoat & Brother Cupafeal, to name a few, are meeting for their birthday mystery theme party when suddenly there’s a murder!

This murder mystery is where you play the suspects and solve the crime. It’s down to you and your fellow guests to solve the mystery aided by a private investigator. One of you is the murderer- but whom? All will be revealed in a thrilling evening of intrigue!

Some of the suspects will be interrogated by the PI (played by one of our actors) during the event, and you’ll get the chance to question other guests, so try to keep your wits about you. There’s a prize for the super sleuth who discovers whodunnit!

As the night unfolds…

It’s your night, so you can decide when to begin, but we recommend starting with a drink reception at around 7 pm. A murder mystery birthday party lasts around 3 hours, giving you plenty of time to continue partying well into the night…

7:00 pm – Drinks reception:

Meet at reception for pre-dinner drinks, where you’ll receive your clue-packs and further character details. You will get to know who’s who – keep your wits about you so you don’t miss a clue!

7:45 pm – Dinner is served:

Each course is served, and the comic plot unfolds. Your Private Investigator will guide you through, unveiling the story and its twists and turns. You might be questioned by the detective or reveal an important clue when asked by a fellow guest during the main course! Word games and Quizzes are introduced during the evening, which may reveal important clues as to whodunnit.

9:15 pm – You solve the crime:

Before the dessert, it’s your chance to be a super sleuth and solve the crime. Hand in your solution sheet for the final judging, and discover the culprit.

9:45 pm – Prizes awarded:

The star prize of one bottle of bubbly is awarded to the winning detective and a booby prize to the hen who came up with the most absurd solution. But there’s still a chance to win with our limerick competition, free prize draw and best fancy dress!

10 pm – End of murder mystery event.

N.B. The murder mystery pricing is for a minimum of 14 guests. You must pay for 14 guests, so if you had a group of 12, you’d be charged for 14 (so see if you can invite more friends!)
