THE
VISION
In a world void of magic, dulled by deadlines and repetition, Nocturne exists as a shimmering rebellion, an invitation to step beyond the veil, into a night where imagination takes form and the soul remembers what it’s like to be fully immersed in the present moment.
The world needs experiences that are extraordinary, where humans can be enveloped in an imaginative dreamscape, where beauty is celebrated and stories come alive.
Nocturne exists to create a space beyond the ordinary, a place where guests can step away from the demands of everyday life and reconnect with creativity, play, curiosity and awe.
Every element of the event is intentionally designed to awaken the senses through light, sound, texture, performance and atmosphere.
OUR VISION IS TO
CREATE EXPERIENCES THAT:
Create Beauty that awakens the senses and stirs the spirit
Elevate Moments until they become memories etched in time
Facilitate Connection; between strangers, stories, and hidden parts of ourselves
Enrich Lives through experiences that feel sacred, wild, and true
Design Ethereal Realms that blur the line between the seen and unseen
Nocturne is not just a ball, It is a realm, a ritual, a remembrance of magic.
A single night, yes. but one that lingers in the heart like a favourite line from a timeless story.

What should I wear?
Costumes are encouraged, expected even. Arrive as fae royalty, a wandering bard, an elegant sorcerer or a curious traveller. There is no wrong way to dress for the Court, only degrees of commitment. If a full costume isn't your style, formal attire with a fantastical touch is welcome.
What's the difference between the two tickets?
Feast of Evenfall guests arrive at 5pm for exclusive early access to Starlit Square and a seat at the intimate candlelit banquet, limited to 100 guests. Moonlight Masquerade guests arrive at 7pm as the doors open for the ball, with full access to all performances, entertainment and dancing throughout the night.
Are tickets refundable or transferable?
A Royal Decree Once your place at the King’s table has been secured, your ticket cannot be refunded due to a change of plans or inability to attend. Each guest’s experience is carefully prepared in advance, with bespoke catering, premium beverages and immersive elements crafted especially for the evening. Should your journey to Nocturne be interrupted, you are welcome to bestow your invitation upon another worthy guest. Ticket transfers are complimentary and must be requested in writing no later than 7 days prior to the event. Please include the new guest’s full name, email address and any dietary requirements. Should the Kingdom of Nocturne be forced to cancel the event, all ticket holders will receive a full refund to their original payment method. If Nocturne is postponed, all invitations will remain valid for the new date. Guests who are unable to attend the rescheduled event may request a refund in accordance with Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in this Royal Decree limits your rights under Australian Consumer Law.
What time does it end?
The revelry concludes at 10pm
Can I buy tickets at the door?
The Gatekeeper Accepts No New Guests Once the gates of Nocturne open, no new invitations shall be issued. All guests must secure their tickets prior to the event, as no tickets will be available for purchase at the gate. To ensure your place at the King’s table, we encourage booking early. Once the event reaches capacity, the castle gates will close to all but those holding a valid invitation.
Is Nocturne 18+?
Only Those of Age May Enter Within the Kingdom of Nocturne, goblets overflow with mead, absinthe and other noble libations. By royal decree, only those 18 years of age or older may pass beyond the castle gates. The Gatekeeper reserves the right to request valid photo identification before admitting any guest. Those unable to prove their age shall be respectfully turned away.
What is The Moonlit Masquerade?
The feast has ended. The celebration has only just begun. As the doors to the ballroom open, the Moonlit Masquerade begins. Beneath a canopy of shimmering lights, the court comes alive with music, dancing, flowing libations and joyous revelry. Whether you choose to lose yourself on the dance floor or linger with newfound companions beneath the glow of candlelight, every corner of the evening invites discovery. Throughout the night, marvel at extraordinary live performances as captivating characters and celestial curiosities weave through the crowd, revealing new chapters in the tale of the Moonlit Court. Step inside the Portrait Parlour to have your likeness captured as an elegant keepsake of your journey, then return to the celebration as the enchantment continues to unfold around you. As the clock draws near and the final melodies fill the hall, gather for one last dance before the court bids its guests farewell. The Moonlit Masquerade concludes at 10:00pm, when the magic of Nocturne gently fades until it is summoned once more.
