Sonnenberg Mansion Mysteries: A Live Whodunnit in a Canandaigua Victorian Landmark This October

Sonnenberg Mansion becomes a crime scene this October. Mansion Mysteries is an evening of live whodunnit theater staged inside the Victorian halls of Sonnenberg Gardens — one of Canandaigua's most beloved landmarks. Guests move through the mansion hunting for clues, piecing together the story, and discovering who did it. Costume is welcome, not required, but the most memorable evenings tend to involve both.

Date: Friday–Saturday, October 16–17 and October 23–24, 2026 (matinee Sunday, October 18) Time: 7:00 PM (matinee Sunday October 18) Location: Sonnenberg Gardens & Mansion State Historic Park, 250 Gibson Street, Canandaigua, NY Cost: $35/Members | $40/Non-members

Pre-paid reservations are required — tickets sell out. Purchase online at sonnenberg.org before Wednesday of each event weekend (online sales close the Wednesday before each session).
