Aircraft on display will include modern platforms such as the F-35, Super Hornet and Wedgetail, alongside warbirds flown by 100 Squadron.
Separately, the Historical Aircraft Restoration Society (HARS) is also putting on a flypast over seven locations across the NSW South Coast, Illawarra, and Sydney.
Full details of every flypast in every location are at the bottom of this article.
Last year, tickets for the Canberra ANZAC Day Dawn Service were capped at just 4,200 due to pandemic rules, while the traditional march itself was also scaled back to include just 200 veterans.
A three-day lockdown in Perth even saw all services cancelled.
ANZAC Day marks the anniversary of the first military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during WWI, when 60,000 Australians died.

The Historical Aircraft Restoration Society (HARS) is also putting on a flypast over seven locations across the NSW South Coast, Illawarra, and Sydney. The aircraft on the schedule include an Orion, Mustang, Harvard, and Huey Helicopter, which will fly over the South Coast from Kiama, Kangaroo Valley and Wollongong, while a Tracker, Dakota, and Caribou will fly past Cronulla, Coogee and Sydney City. First, all seven aircraft will overfly the HARS Aviation Museum at Shellharbour in a long line astern sequence, led by the Orion at 8:10am. The display will include two passes before the aircraft return to the airport. Full details can be found here.
