On Wednesday, 250 VIP guests including homegrown Hollywood A-lister Simon Baker, former Victoria’s Secret model Victoria Lee and DJ trio PNAU gathered under the stars overlooking the Sydney Opera house to welcome in the party season (and the return of grand gatherings). ‘Moët & Chandon Effervescence’ has taken over the grand expanse of Bennelong Lawn with a stunning, reflective mirror installation, set against the breath taking backdrop of Sydney Harbour and the Royal Botanical Gardens.

The event celebrates togetherness and is the first in a series that will roll out through cities around the world – from Sydney to London, New York, Paris, Milan, Madrid, Berlin and Mexico City.

Moët & Chandon will be open to the public from Thursday December 2 until Saturday December 4. Scroll bellow for all the glistening festivities.
