NO PUBLIC HOLIDAY
With Anzac Day falling on a Saturday, workers in most states and territories won’t be given a day off in lieu. Meaning: no long weekend for nearly all of us.
But there are a few exceptions. Western Australia and the Australian Capital Territory will treat Monday as a public holiday, as will some regional areas such as Cocos and Keeling Islands and Christmas Island.
