Anzac Day, observed on April 25 each year, is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand.
It commemorates the anniversary of the landing of Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) troops at Gallipoli, Turkey, in 1915 during the First World War.
This was the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces, and it became a defining moment in the national consciousness of both countries.
