ANZAC Day Dawn Service

Join us to commemorate

At dawn on 25 April 1915, ANZAC troops landed at Gallipoli, starting a legacy that would live long after them. 

The ANZAC Day Dawn Service echoes this moment, and the moment many a soldier has stood to arms. 

Steeped in tradition, the Dawn Service is a poignant ceremony featuring the laying of wreaths, sounding of the Last Post and observance of a minute's silence.

Join the ANZAC Day Dawn Service in Russell Island – hosted by Russell Island RSL Sub Branch – to honour all Australians and New Zealanders who have served or sacrificed in wars, conflicts and peacekeeping operations since World War I.

A Dawn Service at 5.00am for a 5:30am start at the Russell Island RSL War Memorial. 

This will be followed by a Gunfire Breakfast consisting of sausages, bacon, eggs, baked beans, damper, tea, coffee and juices.

All welcome to attend.
