Elementary! A Christmas Murder Mystery

It’s the late 19th century, and snow is silently falling outside Nottingham’s Shire Hall as the annual Festive Soiree is in full flow.

As the guests arrive, a dreadful discovery is made - the world-famous consulting detective Sherwood Flats is missing in action! Is he embroiled in a case, or is there foul play afoot? With the world's greatest detective out of the picture, we need your help to crack the case.

Join this evening of intrigue, accusations, and suspicion – complete with cocktails, dinner, and laughter.

Your Evening

Arrive 6.30pm to 7.00pm for a cocktail. Doors close promptly 7.15pm.

You will then be ushered into our grand courtroom for the murder mystery event. Something unexpected has happened and you must tour the museum, looking for clues. You will interview suspects in different locations to track down the culprit.

Your Christmas meal is served from 8.30pm.

You can mull over the crime throughout dinner to complete your sleuth pack. This is handed in before the big ‘whodunnit reveal’ in our courtroom.

The evening concludes promptly 10.30pm.
