Last Post Service
The weekly Last Post Service commemorates a different moment from Australia’s military history from the First World War through to today.
The brief, family-friendly ceremony takes place outside on the Shrine Forecourt and includes bugle calls and bagpipers, the Shrine Guard in historic uniform, a wreath-laying, recital of the Ode and lowering of the flags.
Visitors are welcome to take photos with the Shrine Guard after the service.
