About My Bloody Valentine Murder Mystery Food Tour

The setting and story for this season’s tour is…

It’s that time of year again, when lonely lovers of Louisville attend the annual Lonely Hearts Club Bash – a single’s mixer that promises intrigue, passion, and possibility. Beneath the soft glow of the lights and the intoxicating hum of music, connections will spark—but be warned, not every spark leads to romance. 

Tonight, you’re a star character in the evening’s Murder Mystery – or possibly the perpetrator! While romance buds and emotions run high, the mystery unfolds as your character is revealed and swirling clues unravel the night’s secrets.

As bourbon flows and whispers weave through the air, you’ll wonder: who’s here for love… and who’s hiding secrets darker than the water of the Ohio River? Dress to impress, and keep your wits about you. After all, love isn’t the only thing in the air tonight.

So, don your most over-the-top Valentine’s attire, steel your nerves, and prepare to mingle with some suspicious guests. There’s more than one kind of heartache in the air tonight—can you piece together the clues before love takes a deadly turn?

Note: This is NOT a real singles mixer. That is only the setting of the event within the game itself.

Death at the Derby Murder Mystery Food Tour

Don your most over-the-top Derby Day attire and prepare to race to the finish line in a dead heat as you unravel unbridled deception.

FAQ’s

Take a look at the Frequently Asked Questions about the Louisville Murder Mystery Food tour:

Unlike traditional Louisville murder mystery dinner theatre, there are no actors! You, and your fellow tour guests, will be assigned roles by your Master of Mystery guide and host, and tasked with unfolding this mystery in an immersive experience (think roleplaying game meets food tour). Also, each evening will unfold a little differently – so feel free to join us again and again!

You’ll be eating a full meal consisting of an appetizer portion, entree portion, and dessert, plus 4 half cocktails.

Yes! You will enjoy delicious non-alcoholic mocktails paired with yummy food, hilarious game play and crime solving.

We designed this tour to have very little walking, and you’ll end about a 2 minute walk from where the tour begins.

This murder mystery whodunnit includes both a full dinner and drinks at some of the best bars and restaurants in Louisville, plus 3 hours of interactive fun.

Our tour pricing for all tours is based on an operating margin that fairly compensates our hard working tour guides, pays full menu price for our local restaurant partners, and includes a 20% gratuity for the staff at each of the bars and restaurants we visit.

We recommend wearing themed attire that matches the evening’s vibe. The more silly, over-the-top, or even tacky, the better! Feeling a little silly and overdressed will help you ease into the character you’ll be playing throughout the evening. (Of course, we want you to be comfortable, too!)

We change the location, setting, and restaurants with our theme each season. And even within the theme, each experience and tour is always a little different and the stops may vary based on availability, restaurant hours, and other circumstances beyond our control.

That said, each stop on all of our tours is a standout partner, offering world-class food or drinks and a unique experience that adds essential character and depth to our tour theme.

Your ticket includes a full meal with alcoholic drinks or mocktails at 3 stops, a guide/host for the evening’s experience, and all materials for the murder mystery game.

Participation in solving the mystery is encouraged, mostly because it’s a lot of fun, but actual crime-solving skills are not necessary to enjoy yourself.

Even if you’re not the solving type, just participating is plenty of fun even without “winning” the game or solving the crime!

OMG. So, we used AI to generate imagery for the themed tours we haven’t run yet, with absolutely unhinged results. We promise we’ll be replacing them with actual photos ASAP. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy what AI thinks our tours will be like as much as we did!
