About this countdown
This countdown targets Bank Holiday on Monday, August 2, 2027, set by the rule: First Monday in August. It runs on your device's clock and counts to midnight at the start of the day.
Bank Holiday is a state/territory holiday, so the date matters for more than the celebration — government offices close and many employers follow suit. The NSW Bank Holiday, the first Monday in August, is one of Australia's odest days off: a holiday only for banks and certain financial institutions in New South Wales. Bank branches close, but offices, schools, stores and everyone else work a normal Monday.
