Trading Hours are restricted by law..
Australian States (not NSW*), trading is restricted until 1pm. Business may operate after 1pm.
In New South Wales*, trading is restricted for 24 hours (25th April) including alcohol.
*New South Wales - For the first time, strict retail trading restrictions will apply across New South Wales this Anzac Day, forcing most bottle shops to be closed for the entire day. New legislation passed in NSW last year forces major retailers such as supermarkets, shops, bottle shops and alcohol retailers to close for the entire day on April 25, marking a major shift from previous years when trading was allowed after 1pm.
