The historic Maids Head Hotel features traditional timber-framed architecture alongside a classic red brick facade.

The Maids Head Hotel in Norwich will host three days of Halloween events from Thursday, 29 October to Saturday, 31 October 2026, with separate options for families and adults. A children’s party runs from 1pm to 3pm on Thursday, followed by murder mystery dinners from 7pm to 10.30pm on Friday and Saturday.

Tickets for the children’s event cost £20 per child, including admission for one accompanying adult. The murder mystery experience costs £55 per person. According to the Visit Norwich Events listing, places can be reserved by calling 01603 272008 or the published contact details.

Which Halloween event suits your group?

The programme is divided into two clearly different formats. Families can choose a daytime party built around children’s entertainment, games and food, while adults and groups looking for an evening event can book a three-course dinner combined with a murder mystery.

The children’s party takes place only on 29 October. The murder mystery is offered twice, allowing guests to attend either on Friday, 30 October or Halloween itself on Saturday, 31 October. The listing presents the evening event as an option for friends, relatives or colleagues, and fancy dress is optional.

Games, prizes and a Halloween buffet for children

Norfolk Kids Party entertainment will lead the Thursday afternoon session, which includes spooky entertainment, Halloween games and prizes. A Halloween buffet is included for every child attending.

The £20 child ticket covers one accompanying adult; admission for an additional adult costs £5. The source does not give a recommended age range, so anyone deciding whether the entertainment is suitable for a particular child should ask the hotel before reserving.

Three-course murder mystery on two evenings

On 30 and 31 October, the hotel switches to an adult-oriented dinner format. Guests take part in a Halloween murder mystery while being served a three-course meal, with the dinner and entertainment included in the £55 ticket price.

Both performances follow the same listed hours of 7pm to 10.30pm. The hotel advises booking in advance and says its murder mystery events are popular, although the source does not state a booking deadline or remaining availability.
