Clue at the Zoo | The Alaska Zoo


The Alaska Zoo

Take a step back in time to the Roaring Twenties and join us for Clue at the Zoo, a murder mystery event featuring zoo managers as characters in the plot which you will help solve. This is an evening of intrigue which will exercise your mind and investigative skills in the age-old style of Clue - determine who committed the murder, which weapon was used and the time it occurred. Guests are encouraged to dress in period attire for the year 1928, during the height of Prohibition.

WHEN & WHERE: Join us at the Alaska Zoo on Saturday August 24th, starting at 5:00 pm until the murder is solved and announced on the lawn at 8:30 pm. After the murder is solved, investigators are invited to celebrate their hard work at The Red Lady Speakeasy, for those who are in the know, or bar side firepits until 11:00 pm. Light appetizers will be provided.

TICKETS: The event is limited to 20 teams of six attendees per team. You can either purchase a team ticket for all six team members, or have your team purchase individual tickets. Anyone who purchases individual tickets and does not state what team they will be playing on will be assigned a team.

Tickets open online to the public on July 15th at 5pm.

~ Individual - $125.00

~ Team of 6 - $750.00

*Limited number of VIP teams available. VIP teams receive early access to the event, starting at 4:00 pm with a meet-and-greet with suspects in The Red Lady Speakeasy. This is your chance to do your best to glean additional hints or information that might give you a leg up in solving this mystery. VIP teams also receive one drink ticket for each of their team members.

We highly recommend that those interested in attending this event organize to form a team before registration, including choosing a team name which can be entered in registration. Advance ticket purchase is required. No ticket sales at the gate. Tickets are non-refundable, so we will work with you if members of your team need to be substituted.

Upon check in, all attendees will receive a number to be associated with the card on file, this is how investigators will purchase drinks, enter into raffles and even bribe bootleggers to receive the ‘The Red Lady’ password.
