Goulburn Mulwaree Council regrets to announce that, after careful consideration of the current circumstances, the Australian Blues Music Festival will no longer be continued. Australian National Events, the organisers of the festival, have informed Council of their inability to fulfill the final year of their 5-year term due to unforeseen circumstances.
Despite the unfortunate conclusion of this beloved festival, Goulburn Mulwaree Council would like to express its sincere appreciation to Australian National Events for their dedicated efforts. Their commitment to promoting blues music and fostering cultural events has been commendable.
The decision to discontinue the festival was made after a thorough review of available options, considering the Council’s fiscal position and the difficulties in securing support and sponsorship.
Council acknowledges the potential impact this decision may have on the community and wishes to express its gratitude for the unwavering support received from the blues music community and festival enthusiasts throughout the years. The Council recognises the importance of the Australian Blues Music Festival and will continue to work towards creating vibrant cultural experiences for the community.
