Public holidays in Australia in 2027

Choose your state or territory under Extras to see its full list, for example Labour Day, Easter Saturday, Melbourne Cup Day or Picnic Day. Dates were checked against the Fair Work Ombudsman and each state and territory government on 28 October 2026.

When a public holiday falls on a weekend, most states and territories add a public holiday on the following Monday or Tuesday, shown as an “additional day”. When Australia Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the public holiday is the Monday after instead. Anzac Day rules differ: Western Australia adds the Monday; Queensland, the ACT and the Northern Territory move it to Monday only when 25 April is a Sunday; Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania have no extra day. In Tasmania, Boxing Day on a weekend is moved to the Monday or Tuesday. The Friday before the AFL Grand Final is a public holiday in Victoria. Its 2027 date depends on the AFL schedule and has not been set yet, so it is not on the 2027 calendar.
Part-day public holidays: Christmas Eve from 6 pm to midnight in Queensland, and Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve from 7 pm to midnight in South Australia and the Northern Territory. They are listed as notes, not as full days off. Local holidays marked “Local” apply only in part of the state. Regional show days and other local holidays are not included.
