Anzac Day is one of Australia’s most important national days. It marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War. ANZAC was the name given to the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps soldiers who landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey on the 25th April 1915 during the First World War (1914-1918). As a result, one day in the year has involved the whole of Australia in solemn ceremonies of remembrance, gratitude and national pride for all our men and women who have fought and died in all wars. That day is ANZAC Day – 25th April. Join the Brisbane Anzac parade on the 25th April at 9.30am to show your appreciation and recognise the courage of Australia’s servicemen. A service will also be held in Kallangur at the Norths Leagues and Services Club and the march will start at 8.15am, Deception Bay at the Library 5.30am, Burpengary at Buchanan Park, Bray Park at the Strathpine RSL Sub Branch Club 5.30am and Redcliffe Parade Commencing at Baker Street 5.00am.
