Official sourceThis calendar uses the responsible jurisdiction’s published schedule. It includes applicable national occasions and jurisdiction-specific holidays without importing another state’s substitute rules.
26 December is Proclamation Day, not a second Boxing Day entry. Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve cover 19:00–24:00. ANZAC Day has no weekend substitute. The education source has conflicting summer 2026/27 endpoints; that break is marked unconfirmed.
Check the applicable award, agreement and employer arrangements. A public holiday does not establish that every workplace is closed.
Government-school calendars differ by jurisdiction and division. Private schools, local development days and some remote schools can differ.
Use the state calendar and its official source before booking. Local show holidays and substitute dates can affect transport and opening hours.
Use the calendar for the relevant state, territory or school division. Local and sector-only exceptions have their own coverage.
Each dated entry carries its recorded status and official source. Unpublished dates are explicitly pending and are not guessed.
Choose your jurisdiction for public holidays, substitute dates, local exceptions and school calendars.
