Murder Mystery Dinner & Halloween Party at Shimmy Beach Club

A four-course whodunit supper and a ghoulishly fun fancy dress jol await at this swanky seaside soiree!

The Mother City tarot foretells that an evening of murderous intrigue and a bloody good time are on the cards this Halloween in Cape Town at the Shimmy Beach Club. So get ready for a malicious murder mystery, bone-chilling beats and all-round freaky fun at the striking seaside venue’s All Hallows Eve rendezvous on Friday, 31 October 2014.

This macabre night time do transports the usually sunny oceanfront locale into the dark Neo Victorian era of London, and party-goers are encouraged to dress the part. So don your most sophisticated yet blood-curdling threads and come explore the dark side of dining before getting down to some spooky deep house beats.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE 2014 HALLOWS HALLOWEEN PARTY AT SHIMMY BEACH CLUB

MURDER MYSTERY DINNER: Known for its glitz, glam and over-the-top events, the Shimmy Beach Club is pulling out all the stops for its 2014 Halloween celebrations. The ghoulish extravaganza kicks off with a four-course murder mystery dinner. The bill offers oodles of bloody good entertainment while victims – ahem we mean diners – tuck into the eatery’s new summer menu. The troupe of professional performers will interact with the audience, who will form part of the story line; the murderer could be your neighbour, loved one or… YOU! Of course, dressing up is a must and the theme for the evening is 19th century Neo-Victorian glamour (think: Jack the Ripper, Sweeney Todd or Sherlock Holmes), and an amazing prize will be awarded to the best dressed party-goer. Dubbed ‘Live the Shimmy Life’, this spectacular prize for two includes a one-night stay at an exclusive hotel, a chauffeured transfer in a luxurious Mercedes-Benz, an adrenaline-inducing helicopter ride and dinner at the Shimmy Beach Club. This early evening feast starts at 7pm and once the case is solved, revellers can join in the booty-shaking fun at the Hallows party. Do note that drinks are for patrons own account.

THE HALLOWS SOIREE: Party-goers can also skip the formal dining event and simply get down and do the Boogieman to deep house beats laid down by resident DJs Sox and Gareth Kenward and special guest beatmaker Branny B. And because this Halloween extravaganza is not your run-of-the-mill shindig, the horrifying affair features a number of roaming artists and entertainers that confidently skip in the dominion of magic.

AN EXCLUSIVE VIP PARTY: While this freaky, yet festive fiesta has all the bells and whistles that make it a rocking rendezvous, if you’re looking for an exclusive experience this is just for you. Besides having access to the same off-the-hook house tunes as everyone else, the VIP ticket affords party-goers access to a private area and VIP bar. This elite quarter will also have a selection of canapés on offer, and guests all receive a welcome drink on arrival.

A STUNNING SEASIDE LOCALE: This exclusive secluded spot is one of the Mother City’s most unique party venues and often sees affluent socialites strut through its doors and across the sprawling deck that leads onto a private beach and an infinity pool. And, if you’re still not quite convinced that this swanky seaside locale can fulfil your spooky needs, here’s one more reason to attend. Since the location looks out onto the Atlantic Ocean, there’s a chance you can spot the famous Cape-based ghost ship, The Flying Dutchman, make its ill-fated trip around the peninsula.
