7 Most Entertaining Dinner Shows in Myrtle Beach

Looking to spice up your Myrtle Beach vacation with more than just sand and sunshine? When you're staying at The Caravelle Resort, you’re just steps from the fun. And dinner doesn’t have to be boring either. In fact, dinner can be the entertainment.

From sword-swinging knights to fire-dancing warriors, mobsters to stand-up comedians, Myrtle Beach dinner shows serve up food and unforgettable performances. Here are the seven most entertaining dinner shows to check out during your stay!

 

About Dinner Theater: What to Expect

Dinner theater is the perfect blend of a night out and a full-on entertainment experience. Instead of just dining at a restaurant or sitting through a show, you get both—served simultaneously.

Expect to be seated at banquet-style tables with a clear view of the stage (or sometimes, the action happens all around you). While you enjoy a multi-course meal, actors perform a live show filled with music, comedy, drama, or mystery—often with audience participation.

Some shows follow a script, while others invite you to be part of the story, whether it's solving a murder, cheering on knights, or dancing along with island performers. It’s immersive, lively, and ideal for groups, families, date nights, or anyone looking for something beyond the ordinary.

Come hungry and ready to laugh, cheer, or even play a role in the action - use this handy list to guide the way.

 

1. Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show

Shiver me timbers—this is not your average night out. At Pirates Voyage, you’ll cheer on legendary captains Blackbeard and Calico Jack as they battle on land, on ship, and midair with jaw-dropping acrobatics and sword fights. Think pirate ships, mermaids, sea lions, and a full-on lagoon in the theater.

Dinner? It’s a four-course pirate feast with creamy veggie soup, roasted chicken, sugar-cured ham, buttery corn, baked potato, and apple pie—all served with unlimited drinks. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are available too.

If you're visiting during the holidays, don't miss their festive Christmas at Pirates Voyage show!

3. Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament

Swords clash, horses gallop, and knights joust for glory—all inside a real-life castle. Medieval Times whisks you back to 11th-century Spain, where Queen Isabella presides over a tournament of champions.

Choose your knight’s color and cheer with your fellow nobles as you enjoy a hearty four-course feast. Expect garlic bread, tomato bisque, roast chicken, corn on the cob, herb-roasted potatoes, and dessert. Veggie and allergy-friendly meals available upon request.

This is dinner with drama, pageantry, and plenty of photo ops. It's one of the most fun experiences in Myrtle Beach.

 

4. Polynesian Fire Luau & Fire Show

• 6803 N Ocean Blvd.


• polynesianfire.com

Polynesian Fire is pure island magic. Take a tropical escape right in Myrtle Beach with this vibrant, family-run, luau-style dinner show rooted in the Samoan village of Nu'uuli. Right on Myrtle Beach’s Golden Mile, Polynesian Fire & Luau Show features music, dance, and a heart-stopping Samoan fire knife performance from world champion Malakai Lavatai and his family.

The dinner feast includes favorites like Kalua pulled pork, Huli Huli chicken, island-style fish, sticky rice, and red velvet cake. With the ocean breeze and authentic Samoan energy, this show delivers a warm, family-friendly vibe. For dessert, you can enjoy a rich Red Velvet Cake.

 

5. Murder In The Wild West

• 10429 N Kings Hwy.


• murderinthewildwest.com

Saddle up for a murder mystery dinner straight out of the Old West. At Murder in the Wild West, you’ll become part of a saloon showdown filled with suspicious outlaws, dusty sheriffs, and plenty of plot twists.

As the mystery unfolds, you’ll chow down on a hearty cowboy-inspired dinner (think BBQ, baked beans, and cornbread), all while helping crack the case. Costumes are encouraged, and audience participation is half the fun. This one’s a rootin’-tootin’ good time for families and groups alike.

 

6. Comedy Cabana

• 9588 N Kings Hwy, Myrtle Beach, SC


• comedycabana.com

Craving laughs with your late-night bites? Comedy Cabana, located in the heart of Myrtle Beach, offers a different twist to the Myrtle Beach dinner show experience. As the area's longest-running comedy club, it's the perfect spot for adults looking for a night of laughter paired with a tasty dinner menu.

While not your traditional dinner show, Comedy Cabana offers a fantastic comedy show with the option to order some great food and, of course, drinks.

With shows running almost nightly, except for Sundays, Mondays, and some Tuesdays, the club features a variety of comedians, including local talents and nationally recognized performers.

Along with a show, Comedy Cabana requires guests to purchase two beverages or food items, which only adds to the relaxed, cabaret-style atmosphere.

 

7. House of Blues Murder Mystery Dinner

• 4640 Hwy 17 S


• houseofblues.com

House of Blues is known for its concerts, but a few nights a week, it transforms into a hilarious murder mystery dinner show with a Southern twist. You’ll be seated for a three-course meal including a southern salad, rosemary-marinated chicken, and key lime pie tart—right in the middle of the action that's unfolding around you.

It’s interactive, it’s unpredictable, and yes, you might end up accused of the crime yourself (in fun, of course). Come for the food, stay for the mystery, and maybe leave with a prize.

Be sure to book your tickets ahead of time. This Myrtle Beach dinner show sells out fast!
