Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have questions about attending or hosting National Treasure Hunt's HEIST NIGHT? Find answers to our most frequently asked questions below!

National Treasure Hunt's HEIST NIGHT is our most elaborate and interactive community event to-date! Teams of participants race against time (and each other) to complete puzzles and challenges that will lead them to a missing object. Challenges are story-driven and span themes such as history, science, ciphers, logic, and trivia. The full experience lasts approximately two hours.


To ensure attendees are able to participate in all challenges, National Treasure Hunt's HEIST NIGHT is recommended for audiences aged 18+, though younger participants are welcome to attend. 


No! While you should feel free to assemble your own HEIST NIGHT team of 5-6 people, if you come alone or in a smaller group, we'll pair you with other participants to form the perfect team.


No! While fans may have an advantage when completing certain history or trivia challenges, all tasks can be completed without prior National Treasure knowledge. That being said, if you've been looking for a reason to watch (or re-watch) the movies, your upcoming HEIST NIGHT preparation is a great one!


We recommend dressing comfortably for the venue and time of year. Some HEIST NIGHT events take place outdoors; contact the event venue for information regarding whether your event will be located indoors or outdoors, as needed. Additionally, participants will be required to move about the venue to complete challenges, so keep this in mind when dressing for the event!


Not quite. We like to describe National Treasure Hunt's HEIST NIGHT as the puzzles of an escape room in the open-air, interactive, and competitive environment of a murder mystery event. During the HEIST NIGHT experience, your challenges will be based on a story and your ultimate goal will be to find a hidden object.


We love the competitive energy! Typically, the winning team will receive a small prize from National Treasure Hunt and/or the host venue. The team may also be featured on National Treasure Hunt's social media and website.


That's the spirit! Tickets to National Treasure Hunt's HEIST NIGHT are sold on a per-event basis and can typically be purchased on the host venue's website. 


Keep an eye on the Events page of our website, follow us on social media (X, Instagram, and LinkedIn), or join our mailing list to be notified when new HEIST NIGHT dates and venues are announced.


Yes. Advance registration is required to ensure that teams, puzzles, and props can be prepared in time for the event. While we will do our best to accommodate walk-up participants, we cannot guarantee entry to those who are not pre-registered.


Thank you so much for your interest! We are always looking for new partners at museums, libraries, historical societies, and other community organizations. Tell us more about your interests (including your location, proposed date(s), and typical audience) in a contact form message, and we'll be in touch to schedule an exploratory call.


Could be! The collaborative, team-based nature of National Treasure Hunt's HEIST NIGHT makes it a great team-building or group bonding activity. Tell us more about your interests (including your location, proposed date(s), and group size) in a contact form message, and we'll be in touch to schedule an exploratory call. (Please note that HEIST NIGHT is best suited for groups of 30-80 people, though it may be possible to accommodate smaller or larger groups.)
