People from the rural community who wouldn't normally go on a protest are expected to be out in force today.
Thousands of farmers, hunters and growers will bring their utes, dogs and tractors into town at midday to protest against increasing government regulations.
They include so-called ute tax, the Emissions Trading Scheme, Three Waters, Significant Natural Areas and visas for overseas workers.
Federated Farmers president, Andrew Hoggard, told Mike Hosking he's been hearing from neighbours who are pretty mild-mannered and not into demonstrations, who are heading along.
“Most people thought it might just be a bunch of French people going along, now it seems pretty mainstream.”
