Thuringowa 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 THURINGOWA CENTRAL – hosted by Thuringowa 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.

Townsville City Council presents official Anzac Day Commemorations in partnership with the Thuringowa RSL Sub Branch.
