Demonstrators shout slogan as they march towards Victoria Park during an Invasion Day protest on January 26, 2024 in Sydney, Australia. Australia Day, formerly known as Foundation Day, is the official national day of Australia and is celebrated annually on January 26 to commemorate the arrival of the First Fleet to Sydney in 1788. Many indigenous Australians refer to the day as Invasion Day and there is a growing movement to change the date to one which can be celebrated by all Australians. In 2024, supermarket Chains Woolworths and Aldi announced that they would stop stocking themed merchandise for the day, drawing a political backlash from opposition leader Peter Dutton.
