What we’re about
Like dressing pretty and going out? Feeling anxious to get out of those sweatpants occasionally, and don your favorite frock?

About the Murder Mystery Weekend
This invite comes from somebody with murder on their mind. Your invitation promises plenty of excitement and intrigue. However, beyond the glitz and glamor of this event lies something more sinister.
You and your party play the detective in this interactive game of mystery and murder behind the closed doors of Grand Hotel. Investigate the scene of the crime, interrogate suspects, and solve a murder. This one-of-a-kind event promises to be nothing short of a “Grand” ol’ time.General Schedule of the Mystery:
- Upon check-in, receive your first packet of information and clues. Friday is the kick-off performance, which sets the tone of events and when the first murder takes place.
- On Saturday, there is a brief gathering with the Detective, who explains the hunt for clues. (This also allows you some time on your own to enjoy the beauty of Mackinac Island and Grand Hotel.)
- Come back on Saturday afternoon, when Act II is performed and another murder takes place. The evening concludes with three interactive mysteries, where guests in different groups will be rotated into the mystery experiences.
- Sunday morning the mystery is solved!Projected costs based on this year's prices: Projected 2025 Fall Murder Mystery Costs

- High Tea at the Grand Hotel - for Murder Mystery Weekend Attendees - OptionalGrand Hotel, Mackinac Island, MI
Join your fellow Murder Mystery Weekend Attendees to have High Tea before the overall weekend activities get started.
Afternoon Tea is a tea-related ritual, introduced in Britain in the early 1840s. It evolved as a mini meal to stem the hunger and anticipation of an evening meal. Fostering the continuation of this tradition, our new tea partner, Steven Smith Teamaker, has collaborated with Grand Hotel to craft an experience featuring premium teas perfectly paired with tastes and bites curated by our exceptional culinary team — all accompanied by live classical music. Something different, something traditional. Afternoon Tea at The Parlor.
High Tea at the Grand is daily event at the Grand Hotel - no reservations are needed if you are staying at the hotel.
Price (2024 rates): $65 + tax
