About Anzac Day 2027
Anzac Day 2027 falls on Sunday, April 25. Because that is a Sunday, the substitute day is Monday, April 26, and that is the day offices close. It lands on a Monday, so 2027 brings a three-day weekend from Saturday, April 24.
Anzac Day, April 25, is New Zealand's national day of war remembrance and a public holiday nationwide. Shops must stay closed until 1pm, and when the date falls on a weekend the day off is Mondayised for workers who would not normally work weekends.
