Labour Day Weekend 2026
Victoria celebrates Labour Day with a public holiday on Monday 9th March 2026 giving us a long weekend.
Labour Day has its origins in the eight hour day movement which advocated eight hours for work eight hours for recreation and eight hours for rest.
Labour Day is an annual holiday celebrated in Australia resulting from efforts of the labour union movement to celebrate the economic and social achievements of workers.
Victorian Labour Day is on the second Monday of March every year.
