How does Andronicus meet his death?

Tamora the Goth Queen and Empress of Rome, disguised as Revenge, has proposed to Titus that he should invite the Emperor and Tamora to a dinner party along with his son Lucius who is leading an army of Goths toward Rome. At this party, Tamora-Revenge says, he can get revenge on his enemies. Titus has been driven half-crazy by the deaths of two of his sons and the rape and dismemberment of his daughter Lavinia by Tamora's sons, and so Tamora believes that he does not have a good enough grip on reality to be able to actually take revenge on her and her sons. But she is wrong. Titus lures the sons into a trap and kills them. At the dinner party, Titus is the congenial host, and serves Tamora a delicious meat pie. When the Emperor calls for Tamora's sons, Titus delivers the punchline: "Why, there they are both, baked in that pie whereof their mother daintily hath fed, eating the flesh that she herself hath bred." While she's gagging, he knifes her. But the Emperor immediately thereafter kills Titus and Lucius immediately kills the Emperor, so that within seconds the table is covered with corpses.

How is andronicus' death so public?

Assuming the Andronicus you are referring to is Titus Andronicus, the main character in the Shakespeare play, his death is only semi-public. A private dinner is arranged to reconcile the Romans and the invading Goths including the Emperor, the Empress and Titus's son Lucius. It's a private function but it is also a state function, so it is well-attended. Titus uses the opportunity to get his revenge on his enemy Tamora, but he is immediately killed thereafter by Tamora's husband Saturninus.
