What we still need to confirm: Verified 19 Sep 2026 from the official ACT Government PDF (information correct as of 14 August 2026). ANZAC Day 2027: 25 April falls on a Sunday: the ACT declares a public holiday for the Sunday itself (25 April) in addition to the following Monday (26 April), unlike WA/SA/NT which observe only the Monday.
