Australians curb their enthusiasm for US holidays

Australians are starting to curb their enthusiasm for US holidays as local traditions and values take priority. While events like Halloween, Black Friday, and Thanksgiving once gained popularity, many now see them as overly commercial or not relevant to Australian culture. More people are choosing to support homegrown events and focus on seasonal activities that reflect local lifestyles. Rising living costs and a growing awareness of cultural differences have also led families to rethink how they celebrate. Instead of adopting trends from overseas, Australians are embracing simpler, community based celebrations that feel more meaningful and aligned with their own identity.
