As the sun rose on 25 April 1915, Australian and New Zealand soldiers rowed towards the shores of Gallipoli and into history. Every year since, Australians have gathered to remember their legacy and that of all who have followed in their footsteps.
ANZAC Day is a time to reflect, and remember the service and sacrifices of all who have served gallantly for our country.
We encourage all Victorians to take time to commemorate this ANZAC Day. See how and where you can pay your respects here.
