Anzac Day 2024
April 25, 2024
For New Zealanders and Australians around the world, the Anzac spirit lives on in the hearts and minds no matter where they are in the world. On Anzac Day, we remember those who defended our nations - but never came home.
The New Zealand and Australian High Commissions to the United Kingdom are proud to commemorate the courage and sacrifice of those who contributed so much to shaping the story of our nations.
As per previous years, the public, members of the Defence Force's and dignitaries are invited to gather and pay respects to those lost in conflict at a Dawn Service at Hyde Park Corner in London, at a wreath laying service at the Cenotaph later that morning and a Service of Commemoration and Thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey.
