At the start of the tour, you’ll choose a role—so prepare to get into character! As you stroll to three local restaurants, you’ll gather clues with each “round” of delicious food and drinks.

We strongly encourage you to dress in theme, and bring your sleuthing skills – everyone has secrets to hide, and no one is above suspicion.

Each season, the theme of our Louisville whodunnit changes – so you can hone your murder mystery solving skills again and again.

 


🎄 Murder Under the Mistletoe 🕯️

November – December

Here is the setting and story for this season’s tour (we encourage you to read it in your best murder mystery movie trailer voice):

Snow Falls’ Holiday Sweater Cocktail Crawl is the event of the season in the Snowhio River Valley.

Each year, the city’s brave, festive souls gather in their flashiest, tackiest sweaters to sip bourbon cocktails, savor local bites, and revel in the spirit of the season. But this year, rumors are swirling along with the bourbon…

Whispers of revenge, blackmail, and scandal are heating up faster than a smoked (c)old fashioned, leaving everyone wondering if someone’s holiday cheer might just be a cover for something sinister.

On your tour, you’ll stroll along Whiskey Row – aka Whiskey Snow – spending most of your time indoors (baby, it’s cold outside!), and stopping at festive eateries and bars for delicious small bites and classic Kentucky cocktails.

Tonight, you’re a star character in the evening’s Murder Mystery – or even the perpetrator!

While sparkling lights and historic charm immerse you in holiday cheer, the mystery unfolds as your character is revealed and swirling clues unravel the night’s secrets.

Dress up in your most extravagant ugly sweater, prepare to immerse yourself in your given character, and get ready to dig deep into a case of holiday chaos and bourbon-fueled intrigue.

Note: This is NOT a real holiday sweater cocktail crawl. That is only the setting of the event within the game itself. There will, however, be holiday sweaters and cocktails.


A Festive, Interactive Louisville Whodunnit

On your murder mystery food tour, you’ll stroll through Whiskey Row, spending most of your time indoors (baby, it’s cold outside!) and stopping at festive eateries and bars for delicious bites and cocktails.
