What Is the Family Mystery Who Dunnit Dinner Show at TrainTastic?

Things to do in Gulfport Events Family Friendly Gulfport MS

The Interactive Family Mystery Who Dunnit Dinner Show at TrainTastic is a family-friendly interactive mystery experience in Gulfport where guests follow clues, question suspects, enjoy dinner, and try to solve the case before the final reveal.

On Sunday, September 27, TrainTastic is teaming up with Alexis Theatre Productions for an evening that looks a little different from a normal trip to the museum.

There will still be trains. But there will also be suspects.

And somebody has some explaining to do.

When Is the Who Dunnit Dinner Show?

The event takes place:

  • Sunday, September 27
  • 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM 
  • Doors Open at 4:00 PM; Show at 5:15 PM
  • TrainTastic, Gulfport, Mississippi

Tickets are $35 for children and $45 for adults. Adult tickets include drink tickets.

Space is limited, so advance reservations are strongly encouraged.

What Happens During a Mystery Dinner Show?

This is not a show where you sit quietly and wait for the ending.

Guests become part of the mystery.

Throughout the evening, you’ll follow the action, listen for clues, question suspects, and try to piece together what happened before the truth comes out.

Some clues will help.

Some people may not.

That is half the fun.

Alexis Theatre Productions will lead the interactive mystery, bringing live characters, humor, twists, and plenty of reasons to keep paying attention.

What Is Included With Your Ticket?

Your evening includes:

  • A family-friendly interactive mystery show
  • Pizza
  • Dessert
  • Popcorn
  • Clues and suspect interactions
  • Adult drink tickets with adult admission

The theme has a tropical twist, so guests are welcome to dress for the occasion. Hawaiian shirts, flowers, island-inspired outfits, and detective gear all work.

Or just show up ready to solve the case.

Is the TrainTastic Mystery Dinner Good for Families?

Yes. Unlike last year’s 1970s murder mystery event, which was geared toward adults and older teens, this year’s Who Dunnit Dinner Show is designed as a family-friendly event in Gulfport.

That means parents, kids, grandparents, and other family members can work together to follow the clues and decide who they think is responsible.

It also gives families looking for things to do in Gulfport something a little different from the usual dinner out or weekend activity.

You are not just watching the entertainment.

You are part of it.

Why Host a Mystery Show at a Train Museum?

Because TrainTastic has never really been about standing around and looking at trains.

The museum is built around interaction.

Push the button. Build something. Explore the layout. Try the activity. Look closer.

A Who Dunnit Dinner Show fits right into that idea.

For one evening, TrainTastic becomes part theater, part dinner venue, and part mystery scene.

It is another example of how the museum continues to grow into a year-round family attraction on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, with special events that give visitors new reasons to come back.

Is This a Good September Family Event in Gulfport?

If you are searching for family-friendly Gulfport events in September, this is one to put on the calendar.

The Mystery Who Dunnit Dinner Show combines several things families already enjoy:

  • Live entertainment
  • Food
  • Games and problem-solving
  • Audience participation
  • A little friendly competition

And unlike a typical night at the theater, nobody has to sit still and simply watch.

You have a job to do.

Solve the mystery.
