Wyrd Realms Masquerade Ball

The Wyrd Realms Masquerade Ball is a romantic, immersive celebration where the ballroom becomes a realm of secrets and spectacle. Waltz beneath glittering lights, trade whispered alliances through your mask, and follow playful social rituals designed to turn strangers into co-conspirators.

And yes—the dragons are real.
Throughout the evening, you’ll encounter dragons roaming with their handlers, pausing for dramatic reveals and unforgettable portraits. Between dances, you may even meet a baby dragon up close—perfect for a magical moment (and a photo) that feels straight out of legend.

Expect grand vibes, beautiful costumes, and interactive features like Perfume Alchemy, where scent becomes part of your character for the night.

Dress to enchant. Bring a mask. Meet the dragons.

Masquerade Parade

Begin the night in true storybook style with a flowing promenade of masks and finery. As guests arrive, the ballroom becomes a moving tapestry of velvet, jewels, capes, and candlelight—an ever-growing procession that lets you enter at your own pace, be seen (or stay mysterious), and soak in the atmosphere before the first dances sweep the room. Drift through the doors, take your moment on the floor, and let the realm reveal itself around you.

Arrive anytime during the opening window—join the promenade, pause for photos, and slip seamlessly into the night.

Dragon Encounters

Our dragons don’t stay hidden—they roam. Throughout the evening, towering dragon creatures move through the event alongside their handlers, turning corridors and corners into moments of sudden legend.

You may hear the first hint of wings and growls before you see them, then watch as a dragon pauses to observe the crowd, “recognise” a bold guest, or lean in for an unforgettable close-up.

These encounters are designed to feel organic and magical: spontaneous sightings, brief character interactions, and roaming photo opportunities as the dragons pass through the realm—dramatic, awe-inspiring, and completely unforgettable.

Dragon interactions are guided by handlers—please approach calmly, follow directions, and let the dragon set the pace.

Baby Dragons Meet & Greet

Meet baby dragons up close—small enough to feel personal, magical enough to feel unreal. This is your chance for a gentle, guided encounter where you can admire the details, share a quiet moment, and capture the kind of photo that looks like it belongs in a fantasy storybook.

 

The hatchlings may curl in your arms, tilt their heads with curious attention, or “pose” as if they know exactly how adorablethey are—perfect for couples, friends, and anyone who wants a softer, heart-stealing moment between the grand drama of the ball.

Interactions are guided by handlers, and the baby dragons may take breaks whenever they need.

Dance Cards

Every guest receives a printed Dance Card—because at Wyrd Realms, the magic isn’t just watched… it’s participated in.

 

Your card includes eight timed dance slots, turning each invitation into a simple, elegant ritual: offer a dance, choose a time, and write a name—real or mysterious—into the hour. No awkward small talk, no confusion about “later.” Just a graceful promise made in ink, and a moment waiting for you on the floor.

Dance Cards help the ballroom come alive. They make it easy for shy guests to connect, encourage playful mingling, and create those “fated” masquerade encounters—where a stranger becomes a favourite dance, and a single waltz becomes a memory.

 

By the end of the night, your card becomes a keepsake: a page of names, titles, and midnight moments you’ll take home.

Times: 8:30 • 9:00 • 9:30 • 10:00 • 10:30 • 11:00 • 11:30 • 12:00

Pick up your Dance Card + pencil at the entrance.

Perfume Alchemy

Blend a custom fragrance from a curated selection of essences and take home a small vial of your creation—a scent that feels like your character made real.

 

This is a hands-on, guided ritual—part apothecary, part enchantment—where you can explore notes that lean mystical, romantic, smoky, floral, or spiced, then combine them into something uniquely yours.

Wear it during the ball, keep it as a secret signature, or save it to uncork later and relive the night in an instant. Perfume Alchemy adds a rare kind of immersion—because magic isn’t only seen… it’s worn, remembered, and carried home.
