Community groups, schools pay respects on ANZAC Day

by Brighton Council

Mayor Leigh Gray delivered a speech at the service

The 2025 ANZAC Day Commemorative Service at Brighton Remembrance Park saw community members come together to pay their respects.

Local school groups, emergency service personnel and residents laid wreaths at Brighton’s war memorial. The memorial stands in the place where Tasmania’s main training camp during the Second World War was, with the site having housed as many as 2,400 trainees in 1941. After the service, a free BBQ was held thanks to support from Brighton Rotary Club.
