Sydney’s Best Venues to head to this ANZAC Day - to Honour and Remember
This ANZAC Day, venues across Sydney will open their doors to commemorate the courage and spirit of the ANZACs. In partnership with Carlton & United Breweries and Legacy, Solotel’s favourite venues will be hosting a day of reflection and community. From 2UP games starting at midday, to Karma Kegs pulling schooners and raising funds for Legacy Australia, every beer poured will be helping to support families of those who’ve served.
Below are the standout venues leading the day with large commemorations and buzzing 2UP arenas…

The Clock is very proud to once again be raising funds for Legacy this ANZAC Day, with $1 from every pint or schooner of VB bought on the day being donated to Legacy.
