Commemorations across NSW will return to normal on April 25 for the first time in three years, with 2020 services cancelled due to the COVID lockdown and crowd restrictions still in place in 2021.
Two-up will be allowed to be played at clubs and pubs across all three days of the Anzac Day long weekend for the first time, and veterans, their families and friends will travel on any mode of public transport for free
