Guests can learn about poisons, discover how the latest 3D laser scanning technology is used at crime scenes, witness the process used to analyze DNA and master the secrets of body language analysis to find out how to detect a liar.

Bars will be scattered throughout for attendees to purchase beer, wine and cocktails while hunting for clues, taking science lessons and exploring the exhibits.
