Brisbane marked the 110th anniversary of Anzac Day on April 25, 2026. Thousands gathered in the city to commemorate those who served in the Australia Defence Force and those who sacrificed. Anzac Day began as a commemoration of Australians and New Zealanders who served at Gallipoli in the First World War. It has evolved into a national day of remembrance for all who have served and fallen in wars. Before the parade, dawn services across the suburbs and at Anzac Square in the CBD included the laying of wreaths, the sounding of the Last Post and a minute of silence. The Anzac Day Parade started at 9:45 am Adelaide Street, with Australian Defence Force veterans, descendants and school cadets marching in tribute until midday.
