Australia records 25 holidays in 2029. 7 are nationwide public holidays and 18 apply only in certain regions. Not one public holiday lands on a weekend in 2029 — every single one falls on a working day. Christmas Day (25 Dec 2029) sits on a Tuesday or Thursday, so booking the Monday turns it into a four-day break. The busiest month is Jan, with 2 of them. The longest run without one is 244 days, between 25 Apr 2029 and 25 Dec 2029. The year opens with New Year's Day on 1 Jan 2029 and closes with Boxing Day on 26 Dec 2029.
