Presented by Cluedunnit

Step on board the iconic ‘Orient Express’ for a murder mystery dinner experience like no other.

Join crime writer Jonathon Mapletree and a cast of suspicious characters as you solve this mystery of literary proportions.

The year is 1935, and a shortlist of potential authors has been announced for the prestigious Scarlett Quill Award. It is a coveted prize indeed, having been won by Agatha Christie and her ground-breaking whodunnit ‘Murder On The Orient Express’ just the year before. After an overnight stay at the George V Hotel in Paris, the six nominees board the train for a journey they will never forget, as one by one, they are murdered on the Orient Express!

Enjoy a delicious three-course dinner as you question the suspects, decipher the clues and work to crack the case - before the train comes to a full stop!

You are invited to dress in the style of the period, as you work together to solve the mystery.
