Frequently asked questions

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 available calendar entries, 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.
