Thousands of people from Sydney and beyond crammed into Martin Place for the Anzac Day dawn service.
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Governor David Hurley and the Army's second highest official Major General Greg Bilton were among those addressing the 93rd annual service at The Cenotaph.
"I used to come here years ago and it'd be a couple hundred people but now it's thousands," Terrance Coffey, the son of a World War II veteran, told AAP on Thursday.
