19 Sept National holiday - effect on national park sites?

[Alex_77]

We are due to be in Sydney that day and we’re planning a visit to Louisborg fortress. Is it likely to be open if it is a national holiday?

That's good, the location you are going to isn't closed, but be prepared for most stores and restaurants in Sydney to be closed.  We were on a cruise earlier in Sept and we were in Sydney on Labor Day. We took a ship excursion earlier in the day, came back expecting restaurants and stores to be opened in Sydney -everything was closed. Even the restaurant in the shopping area next to the pier was closed, we ended up having to go back to the ship to have lunch. We even heard the crew complaining about everything being closed in town.

 

The ship should have skipped Sydney if it was a holiday. It was a waste of a stop.

I think the OP was inquiring about the day of the Queen's funeral

Not all places would have been closed

Hope they had a good  visit

To confirm - the fort was open and we spent such a long time there that didn’t have time for more than a coffee so didn’t notice restaurants etc!
