March. Melbourne.
The 2023 Anzac Day March will proceed as normal before Covid restrictions.

The R.S.L have sent a reminder that it is a formal March, not a parade. General rules of the March are:
One set of medals per family member.
Neat casual attire to be worn.
No football jumpers.
No photos to be carried & no prams.
National dress or costumes are not to be worn.
Only Association banners to be carried.
The March steps off at 10:28am, (form up 10:00 south side Flinders St. / Federation Square.) The March will proceed to the Eternal Flame at the Shrine of Remembrance.
Registration is not necessary.
Unfortunately, due to hotels now requiring exact numbers and payment up front for bookings, we will not be having a reunion this year after the march.
