The Australia´s day is the official day of Australia. Its celebrated on 26 january.
This day is marked by parties and celebrations such as civic acts and protests
How it starded:
The commemorative date is a tribute to the day when the first British ship, commanded by Captain Arthur Phillip, arrived on the Australian coast and began the process of colonizing the country.
At that time, the English government had a plan to make Australia a type of prison, where inmates who had no other way would be sent.


The plan did not work, and over the years, English families started to immigrate to Australia and the country was forming.
How this date is celebrate:
Australia Day looks like the carnaval here in Brazil. Australians are happy to celebrate this day. They decorate everything with Australian flags, kangaroos, country-colored lights and posters.

they decorate the houses and the streets of the city. They wear themed clothes, dressed from head to toe in Australia.
There are also many free events in every city in the country. In Sydney, there is a boat parade on the Harbor Bridge and artists perform in Darling Harbor, where, at the end of the day, the best boats in the parade come together.

During the night Australians sing Australia's anthem in front of the country's flag, which is all lit up. And has fireworks at night.
