Context
October in Australia
October brings daylight saving time back on the first Sunday of the month in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, and the ACT. New South Wales, the ACT, and South Australia hold Labour Day on the first Monday of October, and Queensland holds the King's Birthday holiday on the same day. October 31 is the deadline for individuals who lodge their own tax return.

Printing
Printing tips
- Choose A4 outside North America and Letter in the United States and Canada; the two layouts are otherwise identical, with the same generous margins.
- In the print dialog, set the scale to 100% or "Actual size". "Fit to page" quietly shrinks the grid and softens the lines.
- Portrait is the classic wall format; landscape gives each day a wider box if you write big or plan in two colors.
- For a wall calendar that stays flat, print on heavier paper, around 160 to 200 gsm.

Planning
Planning notes for October 2026
- The first working day of October 2026 is Thursday, October 1, and the last is Friday, October 30.
- No AU national holidays fall in October 2026, so there is no long weekend this month.
- Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays appear five times this month and the other days four times, so a weekly class, bin day, or payment that falls on one of them comes around once more than usual.
- Clocks go forward one hour on Sunday, October 4 in the states and territories that use daylight saving time.
