Tens of thousands around New Zealand and across the world are marking Anzac Day today.
It comes after two years of disruption to regular commemorations.
Last year, Covid-19 put a stop to mass gatherings and public memorials. The year before, Anzac Day fell just a month after the terrorist attacks in Christchurch.
An estimated 15,000 people attended the dawn service at the Auckland War Memorial Museum today, while 2500 people attended the 11am National Anzac Day Service at Pukeahu National War Memorial Park at Wellington.
