Mount Macedon Anzac Day Dawn Service

The Mount Macedon Anzac Day Dawn Service is a commemorative event that honours the sacrifice of veterans, salutes their service and seeks to learn from the experiences of servicemen and servicewomen.

In order to provide a safe and orderly event, private vehicles (including cars, motorcycles and bicycles) are not permitted to travel to the Mount Macedon War Memorial Cross on Anzac Day morning.

To attend the Service you must book a seat in one of the buses that move people to and from the Mount Macedon War Memorial Cross. Bus services operate from Gisborne, Woodend, Sunbury, Kyneton, Riddells Creek, Lancefield and Romsey with continuous shuttle buses from Macedon’s Tony Clarke Reserve from 4.15 AM.

Attendees are requested to ensure that they dress for the weather and bring a water bottle and a torch. Attendance is free but please bring some cash in the event you would like to purchase a snack or drink. Any donation towards the ongoing conduct of the Dawn Service is appreciated.
