The global smash-hit returned to Netflix earlier this month for the first half of its third season. Brought to screens by Shondaland and showrunner Jess Brownell, the new episodes pickup with Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) still heartbroken over Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton)'s harsh words from last season. Now on the hunt for a husband, Penelope struggles to navigate the flirtatious demands of the season as her rift with Eloise Bridgerton (Claudia Jessie) threatens to expose her secret identity as Lady Whistledown to the ton.

The Bridgerton World Tour will give fans a sneak peak at the season’s eagerly-awaited second half, with an exclusive special screening of season 3, episode 5.

Coughlan’s momentous return to Ireland –– and her hometown of Galway no less –– is sure to be the talk of the ton this summer. Applications to receive free tickets for the event are now open at https://www.galwayfilmfleadh.com/
