Dublin: Murder Mystery at the National Wax Museum

About This Tour

Forget the usual museum visit. The Murder Mystery at the National Wax Museum Plus turns Dublin’s famous wax figures into witnesses, suspects, and silent accomplices in an after-hours crime you need to solve. The lights go down, the crowds are gone, and the museum takes on a completely different character once the evening begins.

You and your group receive an instruction pack with everything you need to start your investigation. From there, it is up to you to work through the clues, examine the evidence, and figure out who committed the crime - all while wandering galleries full of eerily lifelike figures watching you work. No spoilers here, but the mystery is designed to be challenging enough to keep you guessing without being impossible. A smartphone is required to play.

This is one of those Dublin experiences that works brilliantly for date nights, birthday groups, or anyone who fancies something different on a weeknight. It runs Thursday to Saturday evenings from 5pm, and the over-18s restriction keeps the atmosphere suitably atmospheric and adult.
