The Australian Open finishes in Melbourne in the first half of February, and the domestic cricket season moves into its finals across the same weeks. 12 February 2029 sits inside this stretch of the national sporting calendar, in the final weeks of summer before autumn begins the following month across the southern states, while the tropical north remains firmly inside its wet season.
A public holiday landing on a Monday produces a three-day weekend together with the preceding Saturday and Sunday, one of the two most common long-weekend patterns on the Australian calendar. Monday 12 February 2029 falls on this day of the week, at the start of a standard five-day working stretch that runs through to Friday of the same week.
The working-day count on this page excludes both weekend days and any public holiday declared for the state selected, so the same date in 2029 can show a different total depending on which state's calendar applies to 12 February. Interstate businesses need to check more than one state's list before setting a national deadline.
