Bridgerton fever is alive and well with season three of the intoxicating Netflix show streaming right now – and in Melbourne, things are extra elegant, with the arrival of the Regency-inspired Queen’s Ball. Melburnians have been donning their finery, practicing their foxtrots, and competing for the Queen’s favour at a glamorous ball held in the Fever Exhibitions Hall. However, all good things must come to an end; the experience is coming to an end on June 23, with the final few tickets on sale right now – to get your hands on them, you’ll want to book your place here before the ball comes to a glamourous close.
Stepping into the Queen’s Ball (once you’ve secured your invite, naturally) aims to immerse you in the world of Bridgerton, with all the glamour and gossip that entails. Dressing up is highly encouraged, and as you move through the evening, you’ll encounter a cadre of illustrious characters, some of whom will be happy to share the latest secrets from the Ton.
For those who comport themselves with true elegance, grace, and style, there’s a covetous prize on offer: the chance to be named the Diamond of the Season by Queen Charlotte herself. Throughout this unforgettable evening, you’ll be entertained by a variety of theatrical performances and dances, where you’ll also have the opportunity to learn the steps.
A live string ensemble will be performing renditions of the many pop hits featured on the show, and if you prop up the bar between dances, you’ll find a selection of sumptuous cocktails on offer. Meanwhile, to commemorate your time in the Ton, make a beeline for the many photo ops around the Queen’s Ball, and snap some memories of this most opulent night out.
We’ve heard it straight from Lady Whistledown that the Queen’s Ball will depart Melbourne on June 23, 2024, so to join this unforgettable Bridgerton experience, you’ll want to snap up the final few tickets!
