Australia Day – Everyone, every story: How will you celebrate?A young person walking through Broken Hill's Sturt Park with the Australian flag

Australia Day is an opportunity for communities to come together in the spirit of friendship and harmony, showcasing the unique and diverse culture that makes us Australian.

This Australia Day, we want to show the world how we celebrate our nation’s favourite day. ‘Australia Day - Everyone, every story’ captures these celebrations and connects Australians across the globe to build excitement in the lead up to, and on, Australia Day.

While Australia Day means different things to different people, it is a day that welcomes everyone to reflect on their Australian experience – their past, present and future. ‘Australia Day - Everyone, every story’ showcases these personal snapshots to celebrate all the stories that make our country great.

This Australia Day, upload a photo or post to your social media channels using #AustraliaDay to add your celebrations to the global map on australiaday.com.au and see how every story is being celebrated. For more information on Australia Day 2018, please visit australiaday.com.au.
