Business and Community consultation
We're seeking your feedback on whether Albury City Council should make an application for a half or full day public holiday for the 2026 and 2027 Albury Gold Cup events.
The Albury Gold Cup is an event that provides a significant opportunity to showcase Albury as a leading regional centre. Since 1998, AlburyCity has applied to the NSW State Government for a half day public holiday to be declared for the Albury Gold Cup.
AlburyCity is undertaking broad consultation regarding the impact of a public holiday on business activity, employment, tourism and the local economy.
The feedback received will be included as part of a report to council on whether to make an application for a half day, or full day public holiday, or to not proceed with any application to the NSW Government for a public holiday to be declared in the Albury Local Government Area.
We welcome your feedback on the Albury Gold Cup Local Public Holiday Declaration. Submissions will be received until 5pm Wednesday, 16 April 2025 and can be submitted via the form above or addressed to:
