By Daniel Hartley · · · 6 min read

The next scheduled Australian Securities Exchange closure is Friday 25 December 2026. Before that, trading ends early at 14:10 on Thursday 24 December 2026. Everything on this page comes from the exchange's own calendar: when Australian Securities Exchange trades, every closure through the end of 2027, and a live open-or-closed check that follows Sydney time.

Australian Securities Exchange trades Monday to Friday, from 10:00 to 16:00 Sydney time (Australia/Sydney), with prices in AUD.

Next scheduled ASX closure: Friday 25 December 2026. Early close Thursday 24 December 2026 at 14:10.

Add these closures to your calendar
Every ASX holiday and early close through 2027, as one calendar you subscribe to. Each closure is an all-day note such as "ASX closed: Good Friday", an early close shows the closing time, and a date the exchange has not confirmed yet says (estimate). Corrections reach you on your app's own schedule: Apple and Outlook within hours, Google usually within a day, sometimes longer.
