Happy Wattle Day!
On this day, 1 September, Australians celebrate the golden wattle, our national floral emblem and one of the most recognisable symbols of the country.
Wattle Day has been marked since the early 1900s, honouring resilience, renewal, and the bright burst of colour that signals the start of spring. Its golden bloom has become a symbol of unity and optimism across the nation.
A simple flower with a powerful place in Australia’s story.
