Short answer: Yes, several parts of Australia have an extra public holiday in 2026 for Anzac Day when it falls on a weekend, most notably New South Wales (NSW) and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). In NSW, the Monday after Anzac Day is a substitute public holiday in 2026 and 2027; ACT has a similar arrangement for those years as well. The arrangement is a state-level policy, so other states may observe only the actual Anzac Day on April 25 without an additional Monday holiday.[1][3][4][5][7]
