25 April 2026 (Anzac Day) is a Saturday. There is **not** a single Australia-wide substitute public holiday on Monday 27 April 2026.

Monday 27 April 2026 is an additional Anzac Day public holiday in:

- Australian Capital Territory
- Northern Territory
- South Australia
- Western Australia

It is **not** an additional statutory Anzac Day public holiday in:

- New South Wales
- Victoria
- Queensland
- Tasmania

In those latter jurisdictions, Anzac Day remains the actual Saturday, 25 April 2026; an employee does not receive a statutory Monday public holiday merely because they do not normally work Saturdays.

For an individual employee, the answer turns principally on the public-holiday law applying where they work (rather than a national rule or necessarily where the employer is headquartered), and then on their employment arrangements. In a jurisdiction where 27 April is a public holiday, an employee who would ordinarily have worked that Monday may have NES/public-holiday leave and pay rights, subject to any reasonable request to work and the applicable award or enterprise agreement. Employees not ordinarily rostered to work Mondays do not automatically receive an extra paid day.

An award, enterprise agreement, contract, or agreed public-holiday substitution arrangement may provide more favourable or different arrangements, but it does not make 27 April 2026 a uniform national substitute Anzac Day holiday.
