Thu, Jan 9, 2025, 7:00 PM ESTGrand Central Murder Mystery & Scavenger Hunt (+ After Party)
Grand Central Oyster Bar, New York, NY
*TO ATTEND GET TICKETS AT - https://dljparty.ticketleap.com/grand-central-murder-mystery--scavenger-hunt/dates/ (Just an RSVP will not hold your spot. Need to purchase ticket. Multiple groups are co-organizing so RSVP's shown are just a very small portion attending. We average 20 attendees for this event.)

Join us for a fun, social adventure at our Grand Central Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. You don’t need any special skills for this activity. Get ready to have a good time making new friends and solving a mystery. Plus, you'll find out things about Grand Central you never knew before!

How It Works:

When you arrive we will put you on teams - if you don’t already have one (90% of those attending will not have a team).

Each team will be given a list of clues and 75 minutes to head to Grand Central to try and uncover the mystery of Mary’s demise. The team with the most points wins.

Once everyone is back we'll safely socialize where you can share your experiences with the others.

The Theme:
Meet Up Mary is a regular on the social circuit in New York. You'd probably know her if you've been out before. She was very personable, friendly and bubbly! Unfortunately Mary met a horrific end at Grand Central and the police need you help to solve her case! Join us for this fun and educational night where you will get to explore every corner of the NYC Landmark in ways that you never have before! (If you have participated in our other Grand Central Hunts no worries as this is a completely different experience)

FAQs:
Can I come alone? Yes about 90% will attend on their own.
What's dress code? Wear what you had on at work. It's casual and comfortable.
What are the ages? 21 and over. We'll have a good mix of ages.
How much to attend? $19 (goes to $29 as event gets closer).
Do I have to buy in advance? Yes. Space is limited and this will sell out.

At this event you will be going on a series of about 10 to 15 mini dates with each date lasting about 5 minutes each. Women stay seated and the men rotate from table to table until they meet each woman.
You will get a match card and at the end of each mini-date you'll indicate whether or not you'd like to see the person again. At the end of the evening you will hand your match card in to the event host. If you both select each other, we will send you each others' email address the next day so you can set up a future date! Within 24 hrs, you'll receive an email with the first name and email of your mutual matches. We do not give out names or contact info unless there is a mutual match.
Our Speed Dating events tend to attract quality, single professionals who are done with the dating games and ready to meet that special someone. Most people know within a few minutes if they would like to see someone again.
We will have fun, ice breaker questions available to pull out of a hat on the tables so there will never be a lull in conversation. The questions are also a great way to gauge chemistry with the other person.
