Easter Sunday Public Holiday Date 2024, Things to Do & What’s Open

The four-day Easter holiday occurs as part of a Christian festival that, according to tradition, celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ from death. According to the New Testament, this occurred on what is now known as Easter Sunday, the third day of his burial in 30AD.

The 2024 Easter long weekend in Australia will be celebrated with several public holidays, starting with Good Friday on the 29th of March, Easter Saturday on the 30th of March, Easter Sunday on the 31st of March and Easter Monday on the 1st of April. This creates a 4-day long weekend for Australians, meaning many families use this time to travel and spend time with their family and friends.

Even though most stores close on Good Friday, most supermarkets and shopping centres open for business on Easter Sunday. Movie theatres, as well as restaurants, petrol stations, and many attractions in Melbourne, such as the Melbourne Zoo, Melbourne Aquarium, Melbourne Museum, and the Eureka Skydeck, remain open.

As thousands of people travel during the Easter long weekend, there is a lot of traffic on the road and accommodation books up quickly.
