Every Wednesday

Next Chapter Winery Presents: A Murder Mystery Dinner — Horror at the Holiday Circus. Step right up for a holiday night like no other at Next Chapter Winery’s Starlight Circus! 

The lights are dim, the wine is flowing, and the holiday cheer feels… just a little too forced. Shadows slip between the barrels, and carols echo strangely under the Big Top. 🎪

What begins as a festive toast quickly twists into something darker—where every pour could be your last, and every gift hides a secret.

Join us for an interactive dinner show filled with mystery, mischief, and murder! You can dive into the clues to solve the crime—or simply sit back, sip, and watch the chaos unfold.
