Are shops open On Anzac Day?

Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand that commemorates all Australians and New Zealanders "who served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations" and "the contribution and suffering of all those who have served."
The day is observed on 25 April, the anniversary of the landing of Australian and New Zealand forces at Gallipoli in Turkey during the First World War.
In Australia, Anzac Day is a public holiday. Most businesses and shops are closed on this day, including major retailers such as Coles, Woolworths, and Kmart.
There are some exceptions to this rule. Some small businesses and convenience stores may remain open, and some restaurants and cafes may offer limited service.
It is always best to check with the individual business or shop to see if they will be open on Anzac Day.
