It is believed that Naum Konxha was the first Albanian to arrive in Australia. In 1885, after a military career, he and his wife visited her relatives in Brisbane and decided to remain.

In the 1920s approximately 1,000 Albanian speaking migrants came to Australia. Mostly men and accustomed to rural life, the Albanians worked in the farming and sugar industries in Queensland and the market garden area of Fremantle in Western Australia. Albanians shared a reputation with Italian migrants for being reliable, hard workers.

During the 1930s approximately 400 Albanian speakers settled in Brisbane and Cairns in Queensland, Melbourne and Shepparton in Victoria and York in Western Australia. Again they worked in the farming industry as they had in their homeland

The Albanian community in Shepparton is the oldest Muslim community in country Victoria. With a Mosque established in 1960, the community still observes religious days and the Albanian national day. Some of the Albanian community of the Goulburn area are fourth generation Australians
