Celebrating Australian National Flag Day
All Australians are encouraged to fly or display the Australian National Flag to celebrate Australian National Flag Day on 3 September each year.
Australian National Flag Day is an opportunity for individuals, community organisations, local authorities, businesses and schools to celebrate with pride the anniversary of the Australian National Flag.
Some ideas for Australian National Flag Day are:
• Conduct a flag-raising ceremony.
• Business and organisations which don’t have a flagpole may wish to display the Australian National Flag in the public areas of their buildings, such as foyers.
• Read about the history of the Australian National Flag and the protocols for flying the flag here.
• Join the Commonwealth Flag Network.
• Celebrate the day and the flag’s history on social media.
