On 26 January, the country will come together to commemorate Australia Day, a day where the nation celebrates its diverse culture, history, achievements, and a public holiday with friends, family and neighbours. 

Across the nation, the Aussie spirit of green and gold is embraced by local communities and the White Pages® in many fun and exciting ways.

In Cowra, NSW, it will be a big day packed with activities at the Cowra Aquatic Centre to keep the family content. While down at the Holman Oval, you can watch some local 20/20 cricket being played, so be sure to round up your Aussie troops, pack a picnic and get ready to cheer.

In the nation’s capital, you can grab a bite at the Great Aussie Breakfast, experience a true-blue bush picnic at the Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve, with reptile and whip cracking demonstrations, or show your pride for our nation at an official flag raising service.

But for an Australia Day experience like no other, gather your family and join our newest Australians at a citizenship ceremony. Register to attend your local citizenship ceremony by using the White Pages® to search and contact the Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs and celebrate the meaning and future of this wide brown land.

With so many activities happening around the country, use White Pages® Online to get in touch with local clubs and councils for the most up-to-date information on Australia Day activities and use White Pages® Mobile to find your local destination. The map will not only display your location but guide you to where you want to go - so you don’t miss out on the Aussie action in your local area.

Also, remember to include the information you find in White Pages® MyLists ,as it lets you create and personalise your own lists for family, friends and businesses, making sure the contact details you need are always updated. 

It’s quick and easy to create a list.  All you need to do is –
