While the ‘national’ event is held in Canberra each year, there are also other Bomber Command Commemorative Day events being held across Australia around the same time.
Note that as the Canberra event was brought forward a week this year to avoid clashing with the Queens’ Birthday long weekend, these ceremonies will not be all held on the same day.
At the time of publication not all states had advised their details. This page will be updated when and if they do.
