ANZAC Day Services


Travel to Wadjemup / Rottnest Island for a special ANZAC service like no other. 

ANZAC Day holds a special place on the Rottnest Island calendar. With a long military history, we commemorate all who have served and continue to serve.  

Wadjemup / Rottnest Island played an important role in WWII, and there are many places of significance on the island, in addition to generations of families who have family who have served and were stationed at Rottnest Island during WWI and WWII.    

Join us to reflect and mark this important day of remembrance with services on the foreshore of Thomson Bay. Please note both services are free of charge, however registration is required.
