Unfortunately, pokies will not be open on Anzac Day in 2023. This is due to the fact that Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand, and pokies are not considered appropriate entertainment on this day.
Anzac Day is a day to commemorate the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZACs) who fought in the Gallipoli campaign during World War I. The Gallipoli campaign was a difficult and costly battle, and Anzac Day is a time to remember the soldiers who fought and died in this battle, as well as all those who have served in the Australian and New Zealand armed forces.
Pokies are a form of gambling, and gambling is not considered appropriate on a day of remembrance like Anzac Day . If you are looking for something to do on Anzac Day, there are many other activities that you can enjoy, such as attending a dawn service, visiting a war memorial, or watching a documentary about the Gallipoli campaign.
