The Mystic Krewe of Apollo de New Orleans returned in 2020 after three decades out of the limelight with the celebration of its Resurrection Bal Masque and the 50th anniversary of the first Apollo ball. Now it’s time for the spotlight to shine again after a year of Covid delays when we bring you Apollo Gets a Clue on Feb. 5, 2022.

We will be returning to the “scene of the crime” where both the first Apollo ball and the Resurrection Bal Masque were held – the luxurious Hotel Monteleone in the French Quarter. Join us for a three-course meal and a tableau where everyone participates in determining who committed the heinous crime. Enjoy depictions of characters and places from New Orleans past and present as you try to help our Game Makers and Sexy Detectives solve the mystery.

King and Queen Apollo New Orleans XVIII Dr. Rick Cain and John Bertrand will reign over the event, and King and Queen Apollo New Orleans XIX Tom Merrill and Andrea Sabillon Halsted may just surprise you as they make their triumphant debut on stage.

Seating is limited for this intimate dinner and tableau, so get your tickets early. Doors open for cocktail hour at 7 p.m., followed by seated dinner (with music/entertainment) at 8 p.m. and the tableau at 9 p.m.

You don’t want to miss this elegant, interactive and intimate event!
