Oceania Holidays 2026

The face of the Oceania calendar

Oceania is small in numbers but huge in geography: Australia follows state holidays — the same day can carry a different name and date in New South Wales than in Western Australia. New Zealand moves its main holidays to Mondays (King’s Birthday, Labour Day) and has its own Waitangi Day week. The Pacific island nations list many customary days and local liberation days.
