The Wax Attacks Scavenger Hunt at Madame Tussauds

Waxy buildup has never been so much fun!

Our game is the best way to enjoy this wild and wacky museum in the heart of Midtown. Party with Tyra Banks and Carrie Underwood, pose for a photo op with the Obamas, jam with the Jonas Brothers, stop for tea with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, and snap shots of your team with dozens of other celebs.

While tackling tricky questions and Team Photo Challenges, you’ll mingle with actors and musicians at a Hollywood party; meet presidents, artists, and other historic greats in a hall of fame; and time-travel from the black-and-white era to the present as you pass such colorful figures as Robin Williams, Indiana Jones, E.T., King Kong, and the Ghostbusters.

For corporate groups looking for an especially unusual after-work team-building activity, Madame Tussauds is a great option: it stays open late and has facilities for parties—and you never have to worry about inclement weather.

What are players saying about the wax museum scavenger hunt?

A 5-star review on Google: “Amazing from start to finish!”

A 5-star Yelp review: “Whether it’s a corporate outing or a fun birthday adventure, Watson Adventures delivers. It’s an amazing team building exercise and provides its share of memorable moments. The guides are great. The tips are fascinating. And everyone, including the grumpiest critics at the outset, had a great time. We did the Met [Museum] as well as Madam Tussauds and both offered memorable moments and interesting Amazing Race–like teamwork.”

“We had an amazing time!! It was the best team event we’ve ever had! People are still raving about it days later…which is making other teams in the office slightly jealous. I have a feeling that those other teams will be reaching out to you for their next event. Thank you SO much for making this event a huge success!!” —a corporate group

The Wax Attacks Scavenger Hunt for Kids

Recommended by Time Out New York Kids!

Party with the stars at Madame Tussauds wax museum, where you’ll mingle with celebs at a Hollywood party, brush elbows with presidents in a hall of fame, and pose for pictures with Tyra Banks, Carrie Underwood, Pharrell, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Jimmy Fallon, the Obamas, King Kong, and many more. Kids and adults work together in this surreal group activity to uncover answers to tricky, humorous questions.

This hunt is popular for birthday parties—and is a game in which the adults love the adventure every bit as much as the kids. You can enjoy explaining to each other who the celebrities are! (“Mom, who’s Mick Jagger?” “Son, who’s Selena Gomez?”)
