Dataset: Australian Public Holidays Dates Machine Readable Dataset

Description

The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet is no longer maintaining this dataset. If you would like to take ownership of this dataset for ongoing maintenance please contact us.

PLEASE READ BEFORE USING

The data format has been updated to align with a tidy data style (http://vita.had.co.nz/papers/tidy-data.html).

The data in this dataset is manually collected and combined in a csv format from the following state and territory portals:

• https://www.cmtedd.act.gov.au/communication/holidays
• https://www.nsw.gov.au/about-nsw/public-holidays
• https://nt.gov.au/nt-public-holidays
• https://www.qld.gov.au/recreation/travel/holidays/public
• https://www.safework.sa.gov.au/resources/public-holidays
• https://worksafe.tas.gov.au/topics/laws-and-compliance/public-holidays
• https://business.vic.gov.au/business-information/public-holidays
• https://www.commerce.wa.gov.au/labour-relations/public-holidays-western-australia

The data API by default returns only the first 100 records. The JSON response will contain a key that shows the link for the next page of records.
Alternatively you can view all records by updating the limit on the endpoint or using a query to select all records, i.e. /api/3/action/datastore_search_sql?sql=SELECT * from "{{resource_id}}".
