August is the last full month of winter. By 5 August 2029, wattle, the national floral emblem, is in bloom across much of the country, one of the clearest seasonal markers that spring is approaching in the southern states, even while the far south holds onto its coldest overnight temperatures of the year for a few more weeks.
Any deadline or bill payment due on Sunday 5 August 2029 moves to the following Monday under standard business-day rules, since Sunday sits outside the working week this page counts by default. This convention applies consistently across contracts, invoices and statutory deadlines throughout Australia, regardless of which state or territory is involved.
2029 has 365 days on the calendar. Leap years add a single extra day to February, giving those years 366 days instead of 365 and shifting the day-of-year number for every date from March onward by one compared with an ordinary year. This is the only irregularity in the length of the Australian calendar year.
