Long-weekend planner

Assumption: Saturday and Sunday are non-working days, plus the listed public holidays. This is your planning assumption, not a universal legal workweek. Employer schedules may differ. Only supported holiday dates are included. Each jurisdiction is calculated independently. Local, sector-only and part-day entries are excluded. Use the state or territory selector above to focus the results.

No break of three or more consecutive days is available under this assumption.

    Recorded confirmation and independent source review are shown separately. An institution-specific notice does not establish closure for every employer or school.

    Public holiday information

    This calendar uses the responsible jurisdiction’s published schedule. It includes applicable national occasions and jurisdiction-specific holidays without importing another state’s substitute rules.

    Offices

    Check the applicable award, agreement and employer arrangements. A public holiday does not establish that every workplace is closed.

    Banks

    Financial institutions can have separate banking and settlement arrangements; sector-only holidays are not general public holidays.

    Schools

    Government-school calendars differ by jurisdiction and division. Private schools, local development days and some remote schools can differ.

    Practical planning

    Use the state calendar and its official source before booking. Local show holidays and substitute dates can affect transport and opening hours.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are these dates the same everywhere?

    Use the calendar for the relevant state, territory or school division. Local and sector-only exceptions have their own coverage.

    Are future dates confirmed?

    Each dated entry carries its recorded status and official source. Unpublished dates are explicitly pending and are not guessed.

    How do I find a holiday in this calendar?

    Use Find a holiday to filter the displayed calendar by name. Select a state or territory first to search its complete calendar, including local and part-day entries.

    How are long weekends calculated?

    Choose the assumed weekend and press Calculate. Each result uses full-day public holidays from one jurisdiction only. Local holidays, sector-only dates and part-day holidays are excluded; employer schedules may differ.

    Does an additional or substitute date replace the observance?

    The recorded date role distinguishes additional holidays, substitute days and observances. Follow the official source and coverage note for the selected jurisdiction.

    Are school holidays the same as public holidays?

    No. School terms, breaks and student-free days have separate state or territory calendars. Some divisions use different dates, and individual schools can have additional arrangements.

    What does the downloaded planner include?

    The PDF uses the selected calendar and weekend assumption, with long-weekend planning, notes and official sources. A national overview keeps occasions separate from state-specific closures. The calendar download for a selected jurisdiction retains coverage and part-day hours.

    What should I check before arranging leave?

    Read the date status and coverage note, then check employer, bank, school and transport arrangements. Dates awaiting an official announcement are explicitly identified; a missing date does not mean a normal working day.
