Summers in Australia are highlighted by Australia Day on January 26th. The day commemorates the arrival of the First Fleet of British Ships and the emancipation of exiled convicts.
In the present day, Australia day celebrates democracy, diversity, and love of Australia. In Sydney, you can catch boat races on the harbor while Melbourne hosts the People’s March and the Voyages Concert. Because it’s summer down under in January, Australians celebrate similar to Americans. They too have barbecues, festivals, sporting events, and even fireworks! Australia Day is also the largest occasion for citizenship ceremonies.
