An Australian hospitality giant has banned Australia Day celebrations in its venues - sparking calls for a boycott.

Australian Venue Co, owner of over 200 pubs and bars across the nation, has directed managers and staff to shut down celebrations of the holiday in 2025.

Australian correspondent Oliver Peterson says this debate takes place every year - with no signs of change in sight.
