ANZAC Services and Marches in Brisbane 2026

On Anzac Day each year we remember all Australians who have served and died in all wars, conflicts and peacekeeping operations. It is a chance to pause and remember those who have served and sacrificed for our nation.

Below we have given you an overview of selected events throughout Brisbane and surrounding areas, though there are many more happening each year.

Please note – all events are subject to change so make sure you check the RSL website before attending to ensure current details are correct.

Brisbane City ANZAC Services & Marches 2026

Anzac Day Dawn Service – Brisbane City

Find further details about Anzac Day in Brisbane.

Anzac Day Parade – Brisbane City

The Anzac Day Parade will be held on Adelaide Street, between George Street and Creek Street, from 9.45am – 12.30pm on the 25th of April.  The parade will feature former and current Australian Defence Force veterans and other groups.

Veterans and citizens unable to attend the parade can watch the event on ABC IView or LIVE ABC TV.

Find further details at ANZAC Day Parade.

The recommendation is to use public transport where possible to access the Parade area. The main form up area for veterans is a reasonable walk across the Victoria Bridge to Queens Park. Also from King George Square/Queen St busway levels to Adelaide Street for spectators as well as Central Station. Many of the CBD car parks are closed, however the King George Square car park remains accessible from Roma Street and is located close to Adelaide Street. Other car parks outside the vehicle closedown area are on Alice, Ann & Eagle Streets.

Royal Australian Air Force aircraft will conduct flying displays in Queensland in support of Anzac Day commemorations.

Anzac Day is a time to reflect on the contribution made by past and present service personnel who have displayed great courage, discipline and self- sacrifice in choosing a life of service to their country.

Defence is unable to support every flypast request that it receives. This is due to a combination of factors which include operational tasking and preparedness activities required of the Australian Defence Force.
All flying activity is subject to change at short notice

Air Force is committed to balancing the efficient and responsible use of fuel with the requirement to ensure our people are trained, ready and prepared to conduct operations in support of Australia’s national interests.

Air Force support to public events remains subject to change due to operational requirements and a range of environmental, safety and readiness considerations.

Safety and noise management are vital considerations in the planning and conduct of Defence flying activities. Participating squadrons will operate with a view to minimising the impact on local communities.
