Frequently Asked Questions:

I’m confused by the ticketing groups, what do they mean?

How is the audience traveling?

As an audience member, you will either be walking on foot with Sherlock or biking with Sherlock around the neighborhood. Audience members who sign up for a biking group (and bring their own bicycle) will bike to locations out of basic walking distance.
