It's difficult to pinpoint the exact year sushi arrived in Australia. However, we can say it likely became popular in the 1970s and 1980s.

Here's a breakdown:

* Early 1900s: Japanese immigrants likely brought sushi to Australia, but it was mainly consumed within their own communities.

* 1970s: Sushi started appearing in some restaurants and specialty shops in major cities like Sydney and Melbourne.

* 1980s: Sushi's popularity exploded in Australia, with dedicated sushi restaurants opening and the dish becoming a staple in many supermarkets and takeaway options.

While it's tough to say exactly when the "sushi boom" hit, the 1970s and 1980s were crucial periods in its widespread acceptance and integration into Australian cuisine.
