There is only one thing more Australian than a barbie and some backyard cricket, and that’s Australia Day. This Australia Day get into the spirit with the help of Australia’s largest address book, White Pages®.

Whether you are planning to support the Aussies in the cricket, listen to Triple J’s hot 100 countdown or just catch up with friends, White Pages® is the place to start planning your day off.

Don’t have plans as yet? Enter the details of your local council into White Pages® Online to enquire about celebrations in your area. Some towns throw free Australia Day breakfasts, festivals and concerts to celebrate the big day.

Before you head out to any of these events, consult the White Pages® Online Weather tool, which provides a four-day forecast for Australia’s capital cities.

Chance of a shower? Consider hiring a big screen television to enjoy the cricket inside. Simply enter the details of your local electrical retailer or rental store into White Pages® Online to grab its contact details and enquire about Aussie Day deals.

No matter the type of celebration you’re planning, set up a White Pages® Online MyList to make spreading the word easy. A MyList lets you keep the contact details of all your friends in one place. Simply enter their details into White Pages® Online and save their contact information.

If you decide to stay home and celebrate with a good old fashioned BBQ, some snags and a game of backyard cricket played in front of the rubbish bin, share the celebration with mates overseas.

Use the White Pages® Online World Time tool and Dialling Codes shortcut to pinpoint when and how to call friends living abroad. World Time should help you pinpoint exactly who might be awake for you to call when Triple J’s hottest 100 number one is revealed!

Finally, this Australia Day why not take the time to read about some of the inspirational Australians appearing on the cover of your local White Pages® Book? Australians Creating a Better Future recognises local heroes going above and beyond to make our country a better place. Who was heroed in your local area?

No matter how you choose to celebrate Australia Day this year, White Pages® wishes you a true blue day off!
