Halloween in Miami Beach: Murder Mystery Dinners and Movies Under the Stars at Solei

Looking for something different to do in Miami this Halloween season? Solei Beach Club at the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel is bringing a little mystery and magic to South Beach this October with a lineup of Halloween events for adults, families and anyone looking for a fun night out.

Known for its beachfront setting and relaxed atmosphere, Solei will transform after dark throughout October with interactive Murder Mystery Dinners and Movies Under the Stars featuring some of the most recognizable Halloween classics.

Whether you want to solve a supernatural crime over dinner or relax by the pool with a movie and popcorn, Solei offers a distinctly Miami way to celebrate spooky season.

Murder Mystery Dinners at Solei

For those who like a little mystery with their dinner, Solei's Murder Mystery Dinner Series combines interactive entertainment with a specially curated three-course meal and themed craft cocktails.

Guests won't just watch the mystery unfold. Everyone becomes part of the story, receiving character assignments, following clues and working together to figure out who is responsible before the final reveal.

The series begins on Saturday, October 10 at 8 PM with "Murder at the School of Sorcery."

The magical-themed evening takes guests to a mysterious academy where secrets, suspects and clues are waiting to be uncovered. Character assignments will be provided after tickets are purchased, and guests are encouraged to fully embrace their roles.

What's on the Menu?

Executive Chef Gaston Javier Sanchez has created a three-course menu inspired by the Halloween season.

The evening begins with the Witches Garden Harvest Salad, featuring baby kale and arugula, roasted butternut squash, goat cheese, candied pecans, pomegranate arils, pickled red onions, crispy sage and toasted pumpkin seeds with a maple apple cider vinaigrette.

The main course is The Headless Horseman's Feast, featuring crispy herb-roasted chicken served with pumpkin Parmesan risotto, crispy sage, a Parmesan crisp and sage brown butter jus.

For dessert, guests can try The Poisoned Apple, made with roasted cinnamon apple, mascarpone mousse, salted caramel, brown butter crumble and apple cider reduction, served with vanilla ice cream.

The Halloween mystery continues with two additional evenings:

  • Saturday, October 17: "The Witches' Pact"
  • Saturday, October 24: "A Killer Evening: Sip, Dine & Solve the Crime"

Tickets are $193.75 per person and include the interactive experience, three-course dinner and themed craft cocktails.

Movies Under the Stars

If solving a murder mystery isn't quite your idea of a relaxing evening, Solei is also offering a more laid-back way to celebrate Halloween.

Movies Under the Stars: Halloween Edition will take place on Friday evenings throughout October, bringing classic Halloween movies to the poolside setting.

The screenings take place at 8 PM on October 16, 23 and 30, with each ticket including a bag of popcorn.

Guests are encouraged to bring their favorite beach chair or blanket and settle in for a cozy evening under the stars.

The Halloween Movie Lineup

October 16 — Ghostbusters

Kick off the series with the classic supernatural comedy that follows a group of paranormal investigators taking on ghosts across New York City.

October 23 — Beetlejuice

Spend the evening with one of Halloween's most iconic characters in this beloved supernatural comedy.

October 30 — Hocus Pocus

Just in time for Halloween, gather the family and enjoy the classic story of the Sanderson sisters returning for another night of magical mischief.

With a mix of nostalgia, Halloween fun and a beachfront setting, the movie series is a great option for families and groups looking for something different to do in Miami.

A Different Way to Celebrate Halloween in Miami

Halloween in Miami is often associated with elaborate parties and nightlife, but Solei is offering something a little different this year.

From dressing up and taking on a character during an interactive murder mystery to relaxing with popcorn and a classic Halloween movie, the October programming gives guests multiple ways to enjoy the season.

And, of course, the setting makes the experience distinctly Miami. Instead of a traditional Halloween venue, guests can enjoy spooky-season entertainment at a beachfront South Beach destination.

Whether you're planning a date night, a family outing or a night with friends, Solei Beach Club is worth adding to your list of Halloween events in Miami this October.
