Newcastle's annual Nobbys Beach Dawn Service will become the second largest Dawn Service in the Country, following a $100,000 presenting partner sponsorship from Newcastle City Council.
Lord Mayor, Nuatali Nelmes, announced the councils' strong commitment to delivering Anzac commemoration services in the Newcastle area,
"The Anzac spirit will never diminish among Hunter residents and the City is proud to be a presenting partner with a $75,000 sponsorship to the City of Newcastle RSL Sub-branch for the Dawn Service at Nobbys Beach, the march from Hunter Street Mall and the United Commemoration Service in Civic Park as major events for the region."
The investment will provide free Park and Ride services along with a number of vital amenities to ensure the smooth delivery of this important event.
"Large numbers are expected at both the Dawn Service and March, so we are pleased to provide Novocastrains with a free park and ride option by funding the $20,000 cost of this service. We strongly encourage anyone intending on attending these events to take advantage of it or link up with the early light rail services," said Nuatali Nelmes.
