The article from news.com.au outlines the trading hours for various retail outlets across Australia during the Christmas and New Year period in 2024. It details that major supermarkets like Coles, Woolworths, and Aldi will have adjusted hours, with some stores closing on Christmas Day but operating on other public holidays with reduced hours. Shopping centers such as Westfield will also have special holiday trading hours, with many centers open on Boxing Day for sales but closed on Christmas Day. The article provides a state-by-state guide, noting that in Victoria, most shops will close on Christmas Day, but some exemptions apply for smaller retailers. Similarly, in New South Wales, trading restrictions apply on Christmas Day, with exceptions for certain categories of stores. The piece also mentions that while many retailers will close for part of the holiday period, some convenience stores, petrol stations, and pharmacies might remain open, albeit with limited hours. It advises shoppers to check directly with individual stores or online for the most accurate and up-to-date information due to potential last-minute changes.
