Ladies and gentlemen of the ton, we’ve just received the invite of the season… and yes, you’re on the guest list, too. To celebrate the highly-anticipated launch of Bridgerton season four, Netflix is bringing a whimsical Masquerade Parlour to Melbourne’s CBD – and it’s everything your fairytale dreams are made of (except, perhaps, a dashing duke or duchess).

For one weekend only, you can become the belle of the ball with DIY and guided pampering stations, and a Regency-era photo set so you can capture the perfect portrait.

Now, there’s lots to look forward to about Bridgerton’s latest season, especially with our very own Aussie star Yerin Ha taking the lead as Sophie Baek, aka the masked Lady in Silver. Released in two parts, the eight-episode season follows Benedict Bridgerton’s love story with Sophie after a fateful encounter at his mother’s masquerade ball.

Members of the Melbourne ton can celebrate with fellow fans and unmask their own fairytale at Netflix’s free Bridgerton Masquerade Parlour, popping up at 362 Little Collins Street on Saturday, January 31 and Sunday, February 1.

First, you can explore the luxurious Regency-inspired store, complete with DIY and guided pampering stations to perfect your masquerade look. Then, strike a pose throughout the parlour and take home your own fairytale portrait (new Tinder profile, sorted).

Bridgerton Season Four: Part One debuted on Netflix on January 29, followed by Part Two on February 26.
