Hilton, Leeds City
All-inclusive Standard: £125 (+VAT)
All-inclusive Plus: £155 (+VAT)
You’ll have your own private dining room — and between courses of a delicious 3-course dinner, our fully-costumed detective quizzes `the suspects’. Watch out for clues because later, you’ll take a guess at the culprit.
Whodunnit? As a murder mystery Christmas party guest, you can choose to play one of the suspects — so who knows? It could be you!
The action takes place at the luxurious Hilton Leeds City, so there are no worries about getting there and back. The public transport links couldn’t be better.
Ahead of the party, some of you will have volunteered as suspects. We’ll have already supplied some info — their character, a dastardly motive, an alibi and a plot-twisting secret.
Between courses, our brilliant detective questions the suspects. Listen carefully because there’s a prize if you uncover the culprit. The detective reveals the murderer over coffee.
The all-inclusive drinks are flowing, dinner has been enjoyed and a murder has been solved. Relax and chat in your dining room…or join other guests on the dance floor. A live party band is performing some of the most danceable tunes on the planet.
Meanwhile, professional croupiers are presiding over the casino tables, handing out chips and sharing tips on how to play. And don’t forget to visit the glitter bar where professional face painters can add extra sparkle to your evening.

Do you have any questions? We’ve answered some of the most common questions below. If yours isn’t there, don’t worry. Just call us on 020 7183 3821 and we’ll provide the answer.
The minimum size of your group is 20 people. The maximum is 40 people.
Ahead of the event, we’ll ask between 8 and 12 of your guests to volunteer as `suspects’. We’ll send each suspect a short information sheet with their character, motive, an alibi and a fact which only they know.
If you don’t fancy being a suspect yourself, don’t worry. There’s plenty of sleuthing fun to be had.
It’s both. Your 3-course dinner and murder mystery entertainment take place in your own private dining room.
The private dining room remains yours all evening — and you can join other guests at the after-party. Celebrate your sleuthing success on the dance floor, try your luck at the casino tables, visit the glitter bar or take unlimited trips to the photo booth.
Yes. Your All-inclusive Standard ticket includes unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks.
For £30 +VAT per person, you can upgrade to All-inclusive Plus. This gives you unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks — plus 6 single spirits (with or without mixers), or glasses of Prosecco.
With both options, all-inclusive drinks are served from 8pm until 12.30am.
No. We want you to have a good time, so you can wear whatever you want — although many of our murder mystery guests love dressing up for this event.
Before the evening, the `suspects’ will have received key information about their character. If they like, they can dress the part.
Detectives can be `undercover’ in party clothes, or you can go full Sherlock Holmes with a deerstalker hat, magnifying glass and classic suit.
Yes they will. Once you’ve booked, we’ll send you a function sheet. Use this to let us know the names and dietary requirements of any guests. We’ll inform the chef so that each person is catered for appropriately.
The only exception to this is Kosher food. This cannot be prepared at the hotel. It comes via a separate caterer and incurs an additional charge. Call us on 020 7183 3821 and we’ll talk you through it.
To secure your booking, we’ll need a deposit of £50 + VAT per guest at the time of booking. The balance will be due 6 weeks (42 days) before the event.
We’ll be as flexible as possible. Please let us know about any changes before 1st November and we’ll do our best to accommodate them. Provided there is availability, we can add to your booking — although please bear in mind, we can’t guarantee this.
If you want to add guests, contact us on 020 7183 3821 or email [email protected]. We’ll let you straight away if there’s availability. If there’s enough space for additional guests, full payment will be required in order to secure the booking.
