What is Anzac Day?
Anzac Day has a nominal date of 25 April. The page records the actual-date public holiday and keeps any jurisdiction-specific additional weekday as a separate event.
Weekend treatment differs between states and territories. In 2026 the 25 April entry remains Australia-wide while NSW, WA and the ACT also publish an additional Monday; in 2027 the observed-date split differs again.
Separating the actual day from additional days avoids implying that every jurisdiction substitutes Anzac Day in the same way.
