Top Culture in Victoria

Take a moment to appreciate the building itself. I didn’t think much about the architecture beforehand, but it’s stunning and adds to the whole experience. Definitely stop and look up!

Check out the cafe on the ground floor; I had the best scone there. But, my advice is to grab a coffee stand outside if the line is long – it gets super packed during lunch hours.

Download the Australian War Memorial app before your visit. It has a great audio guide that you can use for free, plus additional info on the exhibits.

Don't miss the daily Last Post Ceremony at 4:55 PM. It's a moving tribute and really adds depth to your visit; just make sure to grab a seat early!

If you're there on a weekend, check the schedule for any special ceremonies. They add a really nice touch to the experience and I totally didn’t expect it!
