Since the completion of the bypass in 1992, Goulburn has continued to prosper and grow into the thriving and dynamic community that it is today. Ideally situated within easy reach of Sydney, Canberra, the South Coast and the Snowy Mountains - the Goulburn District combines the benefit of city services with a country lifestyle.
As Australia's first inland city, Goulburn is incredibly rich in heritage and a regional rural centre. Our seasons are distinct with hot dry summers, followed by spectacular autumn colours, traditional cold climate winters greeted by the white-as-snow lambs of the coming season of renewal when Goulburn bursts into blossom. October is traditionally Lilac Time in Goulburn but the city’s gardens are also abloom with roses around November and March each year.
The arts are also alive in Goulburn with a thriving cultural community of performing and traditional artists. There are attractions and activities suitable for anything from a short break to a much longer holiday. You’ll find a wide selection of dining and accommodation choices in the Goulburn District with everything for a romantic weekend in a heritage B&B to a family holiday on a rural farmstay — and everything in between! Goulburn’s central location makes it the number one choice for conferences, weddings and other events and with great facilities for motorsport in the region, Goulburn is fast becoming the Motorsport capital of NSW!
There is always something exciting happening in Goulburn whether it is performances, festivals, exhibitions, racing or simply taking in the natural beauties of the district and all its heritage.
