Anzac Day 2026

This year's Anzac Day Commemorative Wreath Laying Service, co-hosted with New Zealand, will commence at 09.00am on Saturday 25 April 2026 at Pietà Military Cemetery. This service is dedicated to all those Australians and New Zealanders who lost their lives at Gallipoli in 1915, and in all subsequent military and peacekeeping operations, including those that are currently still active. It is also an occasion to acknowledge the role of Malta in the care of the sick and wounded, as well as the sacrifice and service of so many others in times of conflict.

The service is expected to last for approximately 45 - 60 minutes.

In accordance with the Anzac Day tradition, the event will be open to the public.

We ask that guests and members of the public be seated by 08.45am.

Members of the public who wish to lay a wreath are welcome to do so once invited by the Master of Ceremonies.

Military medals and decorations may be worn.

Guests may wish to wear sunhats and other protection against the sun.

Information about changes to time of the service, for example due to inclement weather conditions, will be published on the Australian High Commission website and social media channels.

 

‘A Camera on Gallipoli’ exhibition on display at the historic Torri Mamo

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Australian War Memorial’s ‘A Camera on Gallipoli’ exhibition provides visitors with the opportunity to view the photographs of surgeon Sir Charles Ryan, a senior medical officer in the Australian Imperial Force (AIF). These images take us behind the stirring accounts of battle being reported at home to reveal the dry, forbidding landscape, tired troops in the trenches, squalid dug-outs, and the horrendous task of burying the dead. Here, in Ryan’s display of mateship, stoicism and dogged endurance, is the spirit of Anzac.

The exhibition also links the 1915 Gallipoli campaign to a series of downloadable ’ANZAC Experience in Malta’ self-guided tours that detail where wounded Anzacs who were brought to Malta for medical treatment, convalesced, were entertained and hospitalised, and the various final resting places of those service personnel who lost their lives.

A visit to the exhibition also provides an opportunity to learn more about the history of Torri Mamo; a fortified country residence built by the Mamo family in 1657 as protection against invading pirates from nearby St Thomas Bay.

This exhibition is arranged in collaboration between Din l-Art Ħelwa and the Australian High Commission, Malta, and is sponsored by Virtu Ferries.

Torri Mamo can be reached by bus. Check Malta Public Transport for details.
