Event:
A very special ANZAC Day
ANZAC Day, the 25th of April, is probably Australia's most important national day.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the ANZACs - the time when Australian and New Zealand military forces fought together in the First World War.
On this very special 100th Anniversary, Australians will flock to memorial services to pay tribute to those who served and sacrificed.
The day, in 2 parts will become one of the biggest ANZAC days in 100 years.
The 25th of April starts with a Dawn Service to commemorate the time of the original landing of troops at Gallipoli.
At 9.30am the ANZAC Day March begins from the SA National War Memorial, moves along North Terrace to King William Road and ends at the Cross of Sacrifice in Pennington Gardens.
Thousands of people line the streets to watch the march and this year the crowds are expected to be huge. Get there early, take a seat and bring a few tissues.
When:
Saturday 25th April 2015
Time:
9.30am
Where:
Adelaide CBD
Getting there:
Public transport services will be running all day.
Free parking at the U Park on the corner of Rundle and Pulteney and at Gawler Place is available for anyone wearing service medals, an RSL / ESO badge or a band uniform.
Note though - the Gawler Place carpark is not open until 6.30am, so parking for Dawn Service will not be possible due to road closures between 5am and 7am and again at 8am to 11am for the March
The Torrens Parade Ground will also be closed for general car parking.
