Alert the ton, Bridgerton has arrived down under! Starting from today until Tuesday 23rd April, the country town of Bowral, in NSW Southern Highlands will play host to a spot of regency romance to celebrate the upcoming season of Shondaland's hit series Bridgerton.

This picturesque country town, with stately homes, boutiques and perfectly manicured gardens is the perfect backdrop to celebrate the blossoming romance of the ton's resident wallflower. Local businesses have joined the celebration with florals and flags sweeping the streets and a whisper of excitement in the country air.

Visitors are encouraged to carriage to the hills in their regency best and explore all the romance the town has to offer.

Bowral is the perfect backdrop to enjoy your own Bridgerton-inspired adventure. Suggested promenade below & download your map here.

ABOUT BRIDGERTON

From Shondaland and new showrunner, Jess Brownell, Bridgerton is back for its third season and finds Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) has finally given up on her long-held crush on Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) after hearing his disparaging words about her last season. She has, however, decided it's time to take a husband, preferably one who will provide her with enough independence to continue her double life as Lady Whistledown, far away from her mother and sisters. But lacking in confidence, Penelope's attempts on the marriage mart fail spectacularly.

Meanwhile, Colin has returned from his summer travels with a new look and a serious sense of swagger. But he's disheartened to realize that Penelope, the one person who always appreciated him as he was, is giving him the cold shoulder. Eager to win back her friendship, Colin offers to mentor Penelope in the ways of confidence to help her find a husband this season. But when his lessons start working a little too well, Colin must grapple with whether his feelings for Penelope are truly just friendly. Complicating matters for Penelope is her rift with Eloise (Claudia Jessie), who has found a new friend in a very unlikely place, while Penelope's growing presence in the ton makes it all the more difficult to keep her Lady Whistledown alter ego a secret.
