SUMMARY:Is the Stock Market Open on Australia Day 2027? ASX Hours
DESCRIPTION:Australian Securities Exchange are closed on Tuesday\, January 26\, 2027 for Australia Day. \n\nNext holiday\nGood Friday\, March 26\, 2027\nRegular hours\n10:00 am to 4:00 pm AEST/AEDT (closing auction to ~4:12 pm)\n\nFull schedule and background: ASX Holidays. \nUpdated October 19\, 2026 \n\n← Previous ASX Holidays\nThe Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) is closed on Tuesday\, January 26\, 2027 for Australia Day. This is a scheduled full-day closure\, meaning no cash equities\, ASX 24 futures (where applicable)\, or options trading will take place on the exchange that day. Any orders queued for Australia Day will not execute until the next trading session\, and trades already settled or pending will follow the exchange’s normal T+2 settlement cycle counted from the next open trading day. For the full list of ASX closures and early closes\, see the ASX Holidays calendar. \nBecause Australia Day falls on a Tuesday in 2027\, it does not create a long weekend extension beyond the usual Saturday and Sunday closure\, but traders holding positions over the long weekend should factor in the extra non-trading day when planning stop orders or options expiries that fall close to this date. \nWhich markets are closed on Australia Day 2027?\n\n\n\nMarket\nStatus\nNotes\n\n\n\n\nASX cash equities\nClosed\nNo trading\, no closing auction\n\n\nASX options and derivatives\nClosed\nFollows the cash market closure\n\n\nLondon Stock Exchange (LSE)\nOpen (regular hours)\nDoes not observe Australia Day\n\n\nEuronext\nOpen (regular hours)\nDoes not observe Australia Day\n\n\nTokyo Stock Exchange (TSE)\nOpen (regular hours)\nDoes not observe Australia Day\n\n\nNew York Stock Exchange / Nasdaq\nOpen (regular hours)\nDoes not observe Australia Day\n\n\n\nBecause Australia Day is a domestic Australian public holiday\, it has no effect on trading hours in the UK\, continental Europe\, Japan or the United States. Global investors holding Australian-listed shares\, ASX-traded ETFs\, or Australian dollar positions should simply expect no price updates from the ASX itself during the closure\, though the Australian dollar can still move in offshore foreign exchange trading\, which operates continuously. \nIs the market open the day before and after?\nThe ASX trades normal hours\, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm AEST/AEDT\, on Monday\, January 25\, 2027\, the trading day before the holiday. There is no early close scheduled ahead of Australia Day. Trading resumes with regular hours on Wednesday\, January 27\, 2027\, the first session after the closure. The next scheduled ASX closure after Australia Day is Good Friday\, March 26\, 2027. \nWhy do markets close for Australia Day?\nAustralia Day marks the anniversary of the 1788 arrival of the First Fleet at Sydney Cove and has been observed as a national public holiday since the late twentieth century\, when state and territory governments standardised the date across the country. As a gazetted national public holiday\, it falls under the standard closure rules the ASX applies to all official Australian public holidays\, alongside Christmas Day\, Boxing Day\, Good Friday and the King’s Birthday. \nThe ASX\, like most national exchanges\, closes on public holidays rather than running reduced sessions\, reflecting standard market practice of aligning trading calendars with the host country’s bank and public holiday schedule. \nWhat It Means for Your Money\nIf you place an order for an ASX-listed stock\, ETF or managed fund unit on Australia Day\, it will simply queue and execute when the market reopens on Wednesday\, January 27\, 2027. Settlement\, which in Australia normally completes two business days after a trade (T+2)\, will also be pushed back by this non-trading day. Anyone with options or futures contracts expiring around this date should check the exchange’s adjusted calendar\, as expiry dates can shift when they fall on or near a public holiday. \nAustralian banks typically also close for Australia Day\, which can delay same-day transfers\, direct debits and some payroll processing that relies on the banking system rather than real-time payment rails. Superannuation (pension) fund unit pricing that depends on ASX closing prices will not update that day. Cryptocurrency markets are unaffected\, as they trade 24 hours a day\, seven days a week\, regardless of national public holidays. \nRemaining ASX holidays in 2027\n\nGood Friday\, March 26\, 2027 (closed)\nEaster Monday\, March 29\, 2027 (closed)\nKing’s Birthday\, June 14\, 2027 (closed)\nChristmas Eve\, December 24\, 2027 (early close\, trading ends at 2:10 pm AEDT)\nChristmas Day (substitute)\, December 27\, 2027 (closed)\nBoxing Day (substitute)\, December 28\, 2027 (closed)\nNew Year’s Eve\, December 31\, 2027 (early close\, trading ends at 2:10 pm AEDT)\n\nFrequently Asked Questions\nIs the stock market open on Australia Day 2027?\nNo. The ASX is closed on Tuesday\, January 26\, 2027 for the Australia Day public holiday. \nWhat time does the ASX close before Australia Day?\nThe ASX trades its normal hours\, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm AEST/AEDT\, on Monday\, January 25\, 2027\, with no early close scheduled ahead of the holiday. \nWhen is the next ASX market holiday after Australia Day 2027?\nThe next scheduled ASX closure is Good Friday\, March 26\, 2027. \nAre Australian banks open on Australia Day?\nAustralian banks generally observe Australia Day as a public holiday and are closed\, which can delay some transfers and payments processed outside real-time payment systems. \nDoes Australia Day affect the New York Stock Exchange or London Stock Exchange?\nNo. Australia Day is a domestic Australian holiday only\, so the NYSE\, Nasdaq\, LSE and Euronext all trade regular hours on January 26\, 2027. \n← Previous ASX Holidays
