What is King's Birthday?
Queensland's King's Birthday is a Queensland-only public holiday. Its state date differs from the multi-jurisdiction June entry used by several other parts of Australia.
The Queensland Government table is the source for each year's observed date. The current covered years place it on an October Monday.
A separate key preserves the jurisdictional rule and prevents the June date from being presented to Queensland users.
