The 2018 ANZAC Day dawn service will take place on Wednesday 25th April at 0630 in the Main Hall of the Korean War Memorial.
This year’s ANZAC Day marks the 103rd Anniversary of the landing at Gallipoli during World War I by a Commonwealth force which included the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC). The shared experience of the ANZACs formed the “ANZAC legend”, which has become an important part of the national identity of both nations. The ANZAC service not only honours those who fought at Galipolli, but also acknowledges and commemorates the service and sacrifice of all the men and women who served Australia, its allies and former adversaries in wars and peacekeeping.

All members of the public are invited to join the ANZAC Day Dawn service.
The Service will be followed by a invite-only breakfast at the War Memorial’s Wedding Hall. There are limited places available at the breakfast for members of the public. Members of the Australian community wanting to attend the breakfast should send an e-mail with the ‘ANZAC Day Breakfast’ in the subject line and details of the intended guests to the Australian Embassy at [email protected]. You will be advised by return email if you have secured a place at the breakfast.
