Observed annually on 25 April, ANZAC Day is Aotearoa New Zealand's most important day of national commemoration. It marks the anniversary of the first major action by New Zealand and Australian forces during the First World War, landing on the Gallipoli peninsula in Turkey. ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps.
Horowhenua District Council encourages our community and visitors to mark the day by gathering in person or online to commemorate those we’ve lost to war and to honour returned servicemen and women.
