Each year Baroquefest attracts new people and brings visitors to the Central West from Canberra and Sydney.
But local people are the backbone of all local events and their support helps to make the event more enjoyable for the visitors.
This year Baroquefest has developed a coach tour program.
Members of Kur-Ring-Gai West Probus Club will travel from Sydney on Friday, October 18 and enjoy four concerts as well as leisure time in the town and visits to surrounding areas before returning to Sydney on Sunday evening, October 20.

A drought prevents the countryside looking its best but surely the warmth of country folk will encourage return visits.
Baroquefest 2019 is almost upon us with a choice of five concerts provided by world class musicians all of whom love the opportunity to come to the country.
The concerts cover a variety of music in style, presentation, and genre.
Each concert is in itself a social event, you can chat to friends at interval, perhaps enjoy a glass of wine as you do so.
They encompass four different interesting venues including historic Noojee Lea homestead for a drawing room concert, light refreshments and a walk in the garden.
Baroquefest and its visiting musicians deserve the support of local people so take a look at the website, www.baroquefest.org.au choose a concert or take a package (bronze is the best buy) and give your support to this local initiative.
Canowindra Baroquefest has already this year brought into town, children, teachers and other supervisory staff from surrounding small schools to join our local schools attending an outstanding concert of Japanese Taiko drumming.
Baroquefest pays the cost of buses bringing small schools from Carcoar, Greenethorpe, Wyangala Dam, Woodstock and others closer in to attend a Musica Viva Concert at the auditorium kindly made available by the Services Club.
On September 9 this year 400 children attended these concerts to their great enjoyment and as part of their music education.
Some schools then went on to visit the Age of Fishes.
A great day out for all and more visitors to Canowindra.
