Notes:

In 2020 Australia Day falls on a Sunday so there is a public holiday on Monday 27 January.
There is no additional holiday for ANZAC Day even though it falls on a weekend.

**Melbourne Cup Day is not a public holiday in all areas. Some regions observe a different holiday for Melbourne Cup instead. Regional or non-metropolitan holidays are published throughout the year. Please check back at a later date for more details if your region is missing.
