ANZAC Day Long Weekend
Make a break for it! Plan your long weekend getaway and take a little detour – just 30 minutes from Melbourne.

 

Take a moment to reflect

If you’d like to take a moment on ANZAC Day to reflect and commemorate our veterans who have served and are serving now, you can do so at the War Memorial in Werribee City Centre. This cenotaph was unveiled in 1920 and remains an important site for community gatherings and commemoration.

On Sunday 23 April, there will be a Pre-ANZAC Day March from 2:20pm – 3:30pm. On ANZAC Day, Tuesday 25 April, the Werribee RSL will hold a Dawn Service. Public viewing will be at Station Place on the intersection between Duncans Road and Watton Street. 

Explore Werribee Park Mansion

Explore the stunning interiors of Werribee Park Mansion and listen to the stories of this grand old building with an audio tour. Take time to explore the grounds including the original farm buildings and heritage orchard. Werribee Park Mansion is open throughout the long weekend including ANZAC Day from 10am - 4pm (last entry 3.30pm).
