Australian Amusement Fanatics

The annual Lilac festival was held over the weekend with the carnival running off the main street off Goulburn. Was absolutely freezing down there with rain, winds and frost. We were open friday - monday with the sun finally coming out on Monday. Bit of a shame but not much you can do I spose. Lineup we had down there was:

Dodgem Cars
Round Up
Flying Fish
Joy Wheel
Trackless Train
Fantasy Cups
Hurricane
Cha Cha
Giant Slide
Flying Elephants
Looney Tunes Inflatable
Few joints
Food Canteen

Thought i'd take a few photos as I haven't done so in a while. You'll notice the Round-Up has had some work done to it which happened before it went into Melbourne Luna Park in April which included the cages and out-riggers being painted and a new sign being built and painted. But yeh here's a few photos:

Goulburn's one of the highlight events for the company as they've been running the carnival there for over 35 years. Was good to see the locals coming out in the sh** weather and supporting the festival aswell.

thanks for the pix mate.... lol at Round Up's SPACE ROLLER artwork

ahh I knew I'd seen that somewhere before, didn't know what ride it was off. I was thinking off the Power Surge. Spose it doesn't matter the ride only does hire jobs so not like it'll be doing any events alongside Space Roller

that face, helmet image is pretty popular in europe too, Klinkerfuß's Millenium (now Rainbow) had it on a light post sign aswell.... I wonder where the original image is from

Thanks for the pics and review; I hadn't heard of that particular festival previously! A shame about the weather too.

thanks Mark...Amazing
