ANZAC Services and Marches in Brisbane 2025

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 2025

Anzac Day Dawn Service – Brisbane City

Every year on the 25th of April, an Anzac Day Dawn Service is held in Brisbane City starting at 4.28am sharp. The event is held at Brisbane City’s Shrine of Remembrance, Anzac Square, located between Ann and Adelaide Streets. 

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 RSL South Eastern District Ltd website.

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.
