What is Australia Day?
Australia Day on January 26 is the country's official national day. It marks the arrival of the First Fleet of British ships at Sydney Cove in Port Jackson in 1788, when Captain Arthur Phillip raised the British flag and founded the colony of New South Wales. Australians celebrate with citizenship ceremonies, community barbecues, fireworks and the national honours, while many Indigenous Australians mark it as a day of mourning, often called Invasion Day or Survival Day, and debate about the date continues.
How to celebrate
Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
