The art deco flair, fashion and fun is still being shared through the iconic Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears Exhibition.
Currently open at the Leeton Museum and Gallery, it is the first time the exhibition has been held anywhere in NSW.
Phryne Fisher returns in the exhibition filled with glamour, romance and adventure.
Residents and visitors alike can experience large-scale installations recreating Miss Fisher's world, complete with an interactive mystery experience, all the while enjoying the feature film costumes designed by Margot Wilson, props and more from Miss Fisher's first cinematic release, Miss Fisher and The Crypt of Tears.
IN OTHER NEWS:
Walking through the door to the exhibition it is as though once is being transported back to this era and there is plenty to view, see and marvel at while walking through and taking it all in.
There's exquisite fashion on show, beautiful imagery and even snippets of memorable scenes.
While the festival, which was due to be held from July 2 to 4, was cancelled amid COVID-19 restrictions and lockdowns, the exhibition is the perfect way to still sample some of that era's good times.
Opening day for the exhibition was on Friday, with a coffee van providing sustenance all weekend out the front of the museum.
Renowned harpist Hilary Manning also dropped by the official opening to share her musical abilities on the beautiful instrument.
Ms Manning had been due to present a special "harp deco" show during the festival.
Meanwhile, organisers of the festival are already brainstorming several ideas for next year.

The exhibition itself runs through until September, so there is plenty of time to check it out.
