ANZAC Day Dawn Service 5.30am
The Official ANZAC Day Dawn Service will be held at the Busselton War Memorial in the Rotary Park of Remembrance, Causeway Road, Busselton (opposite the City of Busselton Administration Offices).
The Dawn Service will remain as a traditionally solemn occasion, where there will be time for reflection on our losses. It will be a standing service, although a limited range of seating for those less able, will be in place.
It is a relatively short service and due to the large numbers that attended last year, we encourage those who can stand, to please do so.
There will be no formal wreath laying incorporated into this service, although the public are welcome to when invited by the MC.
Please note the road closures and give yourself time to navigate to the Rotary Park of Remembrance.
ACROD access is available into the Busselton War Memorial.

The Parade will form up at Mitchell Park on Queen Street, Busselton and then head south along Queen Street across the bridge to the Busselton War Memorial at the Rotary Park of Remembrance, Causeway Road, Busselton (opposite the City of Busselton Administration Offices).
