Goulburn's Annual Celebration of Heritage & Roses Festival
Royal Letters Patent issued by Queen Victoria on 14 March 1863 established the Diocese of Goulburn, giving Goulburn city status and making it Australia's first inland city.
This cooperatively organised, community-run festival is held in March each year to coincide with the City of Goulburn Annual Rose Show and Goulburn's birthday on 14 March.
The many Festival activities will transport you back to the early 1900s and bring history to life. A summary program of events is available to download by clicking the link at the bottom of this page.
