It’s the annual Margaritaville Luau Bash—leis are on, drinks are flowing, and the crowd is ready to party. At the center of it all is Steve, a well-known regular who never misses a night at the bar. Loud, lovable, and maybe just a little too involved in everyone’s business… Steve has made plenty of friends—and a few enemies. But when Steve suddenly collapses after sipping his margarita, the party comes to a screeching halt. Poisoned. Now the music keeps playing… but the mood has shifted. Secrets start surfacing, alibis don’t quite add up, and everyone in the bar becomes a suspect. Was it revenge? Jealousy? Money? Or something deeper? As the night unfolds, guests will gather clues, question suspects, and piece together what really happened to Steve. One thing’s for sure… Not everyone at this luau is here to relax.

Big fun in the Big Easy, Jan. 16-19, 2025. This year's theme, University of Bourbon Street.
