More about Murder dinner team outing

You sit down to a cozy dinner, but it soon becomes apparent that someone at the table has something to hide. Not to worry: the food is safe – the suspense is mostly in the looks, accusations and strange alibis. As the courses are served, a murder case unfolds that you are in the middle of. Colleagues suddenly turn into suspects, detectives or people with a slightly too convincing story. Expect finger-pointing, secret information and fanatically played roles that sometimes fit someone’s personality suspiciously well.

Together you try to put the puzzle together: who is lying, who is telling the truth and who is trying to discreetly deflect blame? Meanwhile, there is eating, laughing and vigorous discussion. Because nothing brings a team together faster than an unsolved murder and dessert coming up. The murder dinner is a team-building activity that focuses on cooperation, communication and logical thinking – although sometimes it looks more like fanatical blaming and creative lying. And at the end? Then remarkably often it turns out that the person you trusted completely suddenly turned out to have prepared an Oscar-worthy lie.

Murder dinner team outing at locations throughout the Netherlands

A murder dinner team outing is the perfect proof that you should never completely trust colleagues. You sit down to a cozy dinner, but even before the main course it becomes clear: someone at the table has something to hide. And no, it's not because of the food. During a murder dinner you combine good food with tension, suspicions and colleagues who can lie remarkably convincingly. Throughout the Netherlands, a murder dinner gets its own atmosphere, but the course is the same everywhere. First everyone is still polite. Then there is a fanatical investigation. And in the end everyone points with great self-confidence to the wrong perpetrator.

In Amsterdam, the murder dinner takes place in a vibrant setting. Here the suspects are creative, the alibis elaborate and the discussions at the table at least as spirited as the conversations over drinks. In Utrecht, everything is nice and compact, which means no one can hide. Every glance, cough and overly quick reaction is noticed. Rotterdam tackles it directly. Here people conclude quickly, accuse fanatically and afterwards admit just as fanatically that they were completely wrong. In The Hague, the murder dinner takes on a slightly neater feel - although this quickly disappears as soon as colleagues begin to suspect each other with complete conviction. Eindhoven produces clever strategies and creative theories. Here people think logically ... until someone comes up with a totally far-fetched accusation that suddenly sounds plausible after all. In Breda, sociability comes first. Suspicions are fanatical, but always with a smile and a good glass. Groningen provides energy. The discussions are lively, the opinions strong and the surprise great when it turns out that no one was right. And in Maastricht, a murder dinner feels almost burgundian. Quiet dining, good food and meanwhile subtly trying to discover who is lying - and who is doing it remarkably well. What makes a murder dinner as team building so much fun is that everyone participates. You don't have to be an actor. Participating is enough. Some colleagues play their roles with deadly seriousness, others with far too much enthusiasm. And somewhere at the table there is always someone who accidentally makes himself extra suspicious. Between courses, you collect clues, discuss theories and make alliances - which are broken just as quickly. Cooperation is necessary, but trust is scarce. And that is exactly where the humor and teambuilding come into play. At the end comes the denouement. The culprit is revealed. Usually it is not the one that everyone was so sure of. But that does not matter. Because the real result is an evening full of tension, laughter and stories that linger for a long time. A murder dinner team outing at locations throughout the Netherlands is exciting without being scary, fun without being boring and interactive without feeling forced. And one thing is certain: you'll never look at your colleagues quite the same again afterwards.

A murder dinner team outing is an evening where you have a nice meal together while discovering that your colleagues can lie surprisingly well. Everyone is given a role, collecting clues and pointing out suspects, often with great confidence and little evidence. The food is innocent, the looks at the table a little less so.

No, acting experience is not necessary. Taking part and having a little courage is enough. The more seriously someone plays their role, the more fun it usually becomes.

It varies with each interpretation. Sometimes dinner is part of the program, sometimes it is arranged separately. This is clearly coordinated in advance.

Above all, it is an interactive, fun activity. You sit at the table, but in the meantime you are listening, talking, deliberating and suspecting.

Yes, often the focus is on who solved the murder best. But fair is fair: the fun along the way is more important than the final score.

Basically just a healthy dose of curiosity and a willingness to temporarily distrust colleagues.
