The Time Variance Authority has invited you to be an honored guest as they celebrate heroic figures from across the multiverse!
But be warned!
Everything is not as it seems as shape shifting aliens known as the Skrull have invaded the festivities!
Relax, dine, drink, and enjoy a night celebrating some of the most beloved figures from across not just the Marvel universe but the larger Star Wars/Disney universe as well. Just be on the look out because among these heroes are secret Skrulls and only you can figure out who is who they say they are.
Coming to the Disney Destiny Cruise Ship, the TVA Bar and Lounge will take the retro-futuristic world of Loki and make it real for guests to step into to grab a drink or quick snack. Glowing orbs of light, a high “window” dome ceiling looking out into the “timeline” where new threads are constantly being formed, and other fun details immerse guests in this world outside of time & space.
The Restaurant itself is the TVA Bar and Lounge. On non-experience days (outside the first and last days of the cruise), the lounge serves classic retro-American cuisine.
A layered stage, with steps in the middle, serves as the entertainment platform. Small bands perform here outside the TVA experience. Ascending from this stage are terraced lookouts where guests dine from a number of unique vantage points.
The most exciting feature though will be the TVA Gala: A Multiversal Mystery! This special event will take over the TVA Lounge for a unique blend of character dining, interactive stage show, and puzzle game where diners become both audience and players. Functionally it's not too unlike a murder mystery dinner theater where throughout the night a tale of intrigue plays out in front of diners, but with some incredible twists that only Disney could pull off.
As mentioned in the intro, the set up is that heroic/important figures from across the multiverse have been invited by the TVA for a special celebration. Unfortunately, shapeshifting Skrulls have infiltrated the event. So, guests must try to figure out which characters aren't who they say they are by paying attention to subtle details and the actions of the characters.
Did Elsa just mention the cold did bother her anyway? Could be a Skrull!
Did Yoda just use proper grammar? Could be a Skrull!
Does Woody have a Snake in his tennis shoe? Could be a Skrull!
The story will be split into 3 acts plus a finale. With each of the acts paired with a different course for the dinner. The rules are explained by TVA agents before guests are seated, characters both act out scenes and visit guests, and diners are invited to try to play along and solve the mystery of the Secret Skrull before the finale reveals the truth.

CHARACTER ENGAGEMENT
As the appetizers are brought out, so are the first set of characters...who all seem to claim something not a little off about them:
Does Iron Man (or Tony Stark) work for the Daily Bugle?
Is Rey part of...the Resistance?
Did Elastigirl deny being able to stretch her limbs out to incredible lengths?
BEHIND THE SCENES
Who's the Skrull is randomized, with the actors tasked to play two characters - the regular and the skrull kind. The rolls are isolated from eachother at 20% odds, though they decrease upon each pre-existing Skrull so there's typically only 2-4.
When playing a Skrull playing a character, the actors are still "good actors", able to mimic the character in most interactions. You can catch them on little things, rewarding fan engagement. There's also a "menu" describing each character and some of their history, encouraging non-fans to learn about the characters and hopefully get into their stories.
Slip-ups occur least in act i (rewarding knowledgable fans), but by act iii almost anyone can pick-up on them if they've read the menu.
and a few more slip-up examples... on hard mode...
Any Avenger saying they defeated Thanos in 2019 (Endgame released in 2019, but there was a five year jump in the movie, so he was defeated in 2023...)
Rey calling herself once a Palpatine, but now she has no last name
Frozone saying he's always on top of his super suit
Stuffed Mushrooms – a real treat whenever they are offered, the recipe here includes pan-fried cremini mushrooms stuffed with pine nuts, panko bread crumbs, sun-dried tomatoes, pecorino cheese, parsley, garlic, and olive oil.
