A live game show for your venue
Who can your
guests trust?
Bring an evening of secret identities, bold accusations and unexpected twists to your hotel, pub or restaurant.
Veil of Lies puts your guests inside the game, with Alara Entertainment guiding the action from the first secret envelope to the final reveal.
The experience
A room full of suspects.
An evening full of possibilities.
Inspired by the suspense of social deduction games, Veil of Lies combines hosted challenges with secret roles and audience involvement. Contestants must work together while trying to uncover who is deceiving them. Everyone has a theory. Someone has a secret.
Discover your role. Keep it hidden.
Contestants discover their secret roles. The faithful must spot the traitors, while the traitors try to stay undetected.
Work together under pressure.
Live games and quick-fire questions build the prize pot as suspicion grows. The host keeps the rounds moving and the room involved.
Make your case.
Accusations fly, the audience gets involved in voting, and banishments change the game. Can your guests read the room?
Find out who fooled you.
The remaining contestants reveal their identities. Will the faithful uncover every traitor, or has the room trusted the wrong person?
From BOXPARK to your venue
Give your guests something to talk about.
BOXPARK commissioned Alara Entertainment to create a live game show for its January 2026 finale event. We created Veil of Lies to bring that atmosphere of suspicion and surprise into the room.
Now you can offer the experience as an evening entertainment package. Guests can step forward as contestants or follow the drama and join in from the audience.
Meet your host, Claude Manwinkel: our cheeky play on Claudia Winkleman. With a name like that, the deception starts before the first secret envelope is opened.
Our show presentation sets the scene and guides the rounds, while live hosting brings the game to life.
