Remembrance Day - 11 November
Today, silence will fall across each state and territory for one minute as Australia commemorates those who have died in wars, conflicts and peacekeeping operations.
Remembrance Day has evolved since it was first marked by allied countries after World War I, in which more than 60,000 Australians lost their lives.
November 11 is now observed around the world as a day to remember the sacrifice that countless of people have made in service to their country.
