ANZAC Day March times clarification
RSL Victoria would like to clarify misinformation on social media regarding the ANZAC Day March in Melbourne.
The start time of the march has not changed. It will start at 9am like it has for several years now.
The form up time has been brought forward to 8am (from 8:30am) at the request of Kindred Orgs and Unit Leaders to give the more than 10,000 expected participants more time to get organised in the correct slot for the march.
We do recognise that timing is tight for those who wish to attend their dawn service locally and then head into the city to march, yet given the march starts at 9am we believe this is still achievable.
The early time has been published on the RSL Victoria website to ensure additional time to get groups organised.
As stated, the march start time has not changed and suggestions that this is because of a State Government edict or due to AFL crowds are incorrect.
