Friday, Junuary 26th is Australia Day 2018
(Please NOTE we are hosting this event on the 27th)
Australia Day commemorates the establishment of the first European settlement at Port Jackson, now part of Sydney, in 1788.
Many people have a day off work and use the day among other things to barbecue, go to outdoor concerts, and to play or watch sports events.
Different places in Australia celebrate the day differently. For example, Sydney has boat races including a ferry race and the tall ships race, while Adelaide celebrates with a parade, concert, fireworks, and a cricket match.
January 26 marks the landing of Captain Arthur Phillip at Port Jackson in 1788. The landing is known as the First Fleet and had 11 ships with convicts. The arrival of the First Fleet represents the founding of the colony New South Wales.~Source(s) publicholidays.com.au & timeanddate.com
