Mother’s Day High Tea with Emelia Jackson

If you really want to stay in Mum’s good books this year, skip the supermarket flowers and take her to the grandest room in the city. MasterChef legend Emelia Jackson is taking over the Melbourne Town Hall for a high tea that is strictly top-shelf. We’re talking about an afternoon of refined elegance where the scones are actually fluffy and the champagne flows like the Yarra after a heavy rain. Set under the stunning chandeliers of the Main Hall, this is the kind of event that makes everyone feel a bit posh for a few hours. There will be sweet and savoury delights that look almost too good to eat (though we know you won’t let that stop you), live music, and a cocktail on arrival to get the party started. It’s a proper Melbourne celebration that’s kid-friendly but sophisticated enough that Mum will feel like she’s been well and truly spoilt. Just a heads up, tickets to this one disappear faster than a plate of lamingtons at a bake sale, so you’d better get your skates on and book now.
