Remembrance Day around the world
Remembrance Day starts at a different moment in each city. Pick a place to see when it begins there and how far from Sydney that is.

Planning for Remembrance Day
Give yourself a margin. Aim to finish preparing a few days before Remembrance Day, so a delay or missed delivery does not spoil the day.
Check how many weekends are left. Each one is a chance to shop, travel or prepare for Remembrance Day, and the tile counts them for you.
Check the weekday of Remembrance Day before you plan. A date that falls on a weekend gives more free time than one in the middle of the week.
For a gift, order with time to spare. Delivery times lengthen as Remembrance Day approaches, so the count of days left is a useful guide to when to buy.
Dates and rules can differ by place. Always check with your employer, school or local authority before you rely on a day off, since local practice sometimes varies.
