To mark the time at which the first Australians waded ashore ANZAC Cove in 1915,  thousands of people will gather at the Cenotaph, Martin Place, Sydney, to watch the official NSW ANZAC Day Dawn Service on 25 April at 4.20 am.

The Dawn Service offers quiet contemplation, accompanied by the bugle call of the Last Post and The Ode of Remembrance.
