Australians celebrate Labour Day (note the different spelling) by having a public holiday, when banks, shops and businesses remain closed.
Labour Day is always on a Monday, so many Australians go camping or take a short break somewhere. There are some Labour Day marches and parades to commemorate the attainment of the eight-hour working day, but these parades really do not draw huge crowds.
Labour Day is also celebrated on different dates in different states. This is because the states achieved the eight hour working day at different times. see the related link below for more information.
