The Victorian Gilded Masquerade Ball

  • Theatre
  • Music

Step into a world few are ever invited to enter at The Victorian Gilded Ball, an opulent masquerade of high society, theatrical elegance and rare indulgence, set within the historic grandeur of The Hotel Windsor.

This is not just a party – it is an immersive, invitation-only ballroom experience inspired by the decadence of the Golden Age. Beneath gilded ceilings, guests in lavish costumes and exquisite masks become part of a living tableau of refinement and intrigue.

Enjoy live period entertainment, flowing food and drink, and an atmosphere worthy of New York’s Fifth Avenue elite. As anticipation builds for Season 4 of The Gilded Age, don’t just watch history – live it. Dance until carriages arrive at 10:30pm.

Secure your invite now for a night few will ever experience.
