THE Australian and New Zealand High Commissions welcome public attendance at the Anzac Day Centenary Dawn Service at the Cenotaph on Saturday 25 April.
This year marks the 100th anniversary since the Anzac tradition was born on the shores of Gallipoli in Turkey during the First World War, where the feats of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) forged a legend of courage, mateship and sacrifice.
Each year on 25 April, Australians and New Zealanders pause to reflect on the sacrifice of ‘Anzacs’ who have served in every theatre of war since 1915.
Anzac Day commemorations traditionally begin with dawn services around Australia and New Zealand, and across the world.
All those wishing to attend the Service are requested to be at the Cenotaph, located next to the Central Police Station, by 5:20am. Access is via Mendana Avenue.
