In 2020 and 2021 residents united at the end of their driveways to pause and pay respects to the Anzacs who fought for their countries at touching dawn services.
However, this year people will be able to come together for a dawn and main service at the Mandurah War Memorial.
RSL Mandurah president Dave Mabbs said Anzac Day would again see diggers sharing stories and reminiscing as the WA government further eases COVID-19 restrictions on gatherings and crowds.
"It'll be a boon for the community - we do expect a big one because we haven't been able to do it for a couple of years," he said.
"We're looking forward to showing off our new RSL premises that we've been in for three years because we haven't had an Anzac Day in here yet."
