ANZAC Day Commemoration March
Join us in the Commemoration March this ANZAC Day. Here’s everything you need to know.
Melbourne’s Commemoration March
is designed to enable those who have served Australia and its allies to re-from the ranks of their units and March.
The ANZAC Day March is a wonderful opportunity for everyone to experience and learn about this highly significant day in Australian history and culture. Descendants of veterans are encouraged and welcome to participate in the ANZAC Day March.
The March is also an opportunity for the general public to honour and recognise those who have served and who currently serve in defence of Australia or its interests.
RACV vehicles carrying the first veterans proceed down the March route at 8:30am, and the remainder of the March commences at 9:00am. The March is normally complete before midday.
*Please note: The information on this page, particularly the Order of March, will be updated regularly. Please check back in for the latest information.
