Join us in the Barrel Room on New Year’s Eve for a Roaring 1920s speakeasy experience!

Step back into the glitz, grit, and glamour of the Roaring 1920s, where gangsters run the streets and flappers rule the dance floor. This New Year’s Eve, you’re invited to our Speakeasy, the hottest joint in town and the scene of a turf war brewing. Gangsters, bootleggers, and high-rolling troublemakers are piling in to make their allegiances known…or hide them entirely.

Now it’s up to the ever-determined (and questionably competent) local constables to crack the case. But not before things get wild. And trust us, in this speakeasy, they always do. The drinks flow freely, the clues come fast, and the countdown to midnight might not be the only thing that drops.

Are you clever enough to solve the crime? Or will you become part of the legend of Cherry’s Speakeasy?
Only one way to find out…

Dress to Kill: Don your finest fedora, feathered headband, gangster stripes or pearls and get ready to ring in the New Year with mystery, mischief, and 1920s mayhem.

 

Attendees must be 21+ with a valid ID.
