No — there is **not** a single national substitute Monday for Anzac Day 2026.

Anzac Day is **Saturday 25 April 2026**. The **Monday 27 April 2026** public holiday exists only where the relevant State or Territory public-holidays law provides for an additional/substitute Monday when Anzac Day falls on a weekend.

| Jurisdiction | Is Monday 27 April 2026 an Anzac Day public holiday? |
|---|---:|
| ACT | Yes |
| Northern Territory | Yes |
| Queensland | Yes |
| Western Australia | Yes |
| New South Wales | No |
| Victoria | No |
| South Australia | No — not for a Saturday Anzac Day in 2026 |
| Tasmania | No |

So the extra Monday is **not a uniform entitlement everywhere in Australia**.

For an employee, the answer turns on the **State or Territory public-holiday law that applies to their employment/work location**, and then on any applicable **award, enterprise agreement, contract or workplace policy** dealing with public holidays or substitutions. Employees in NSW, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania do not get Monday 27 April 2026 as an Anzac Day public holiday merely because Anzac Day falls on the Saturday, unless some other instrument or policy gives it to them.
