Also the main street, shops, clubs, pubs and parks as the 19th Australian Blues Music Festival comes to town.
The first Australian Blues Music Festival, created and managed by George and Maryann Lippman and Richard Simmer, ran from for three days - January 31 to February 2, 1997 - and was billed as "3 days, 38 bands, 2 stages."
It's had a number of different formats, and a number of different managers in its 18 years, and this year boasts 60 performances, 25 acts and 10 venues.
As always, musicians and fans will flock to town (a good work, flock, for the home of the Big Merino). And, if having some of the biggest names in Australian Blues performing wasn't enough enticement to get people to attend, this year every venue and performance is FREE.
It's not only a great opportunity to take advantage of this great (and did we mention, FREE) music, but it's also a chance to share our famous hospitality with visitors and show Goulburn's support for local events.
If you're not sure what's on and when, we've compiled this event schedule and there's a map for vistors to help them find their way around.
So don't just sit there... get the rhythm (when you get the Blues).
