Australian Public Holidays

Planning your year's events and activities? Maybe you need to know on which day of the week the holiday falls. Are you looking ahead for those long week-ends and the chance for a great getway in some luxury accommodation with pampering to sooth the soul?

The dates and days of the week have been extracted from the relevant state government sources and are listed below in good faith.  However, no responsibility is taken for any inaccuracies that may occur.

The dates shown are the day on which the holiday will be taken which is not necessarily the proclaimed date of the event. eg... If Christmas Day occurs on a Sunday, the public holiday would be taken on the Monday.
