Baw Baw Candlelit Vigil - National Day of Remembrance

Next date: Wednesday, 07 May 2025 | 05:45 PM to 07:00 PM

The annual candlelight vigil is observed on the first Wednesday in May around Australia to remember the women and children whose lives were taken due to family violence. This National Day of Remembrance brings communities together to light a candle while they stand in solidarity to mourn the loss of lives.

Community members can bring their own candle (electronic) or use one supplied on the night. Support services including Quantum Support Services and Gippsland Centre Against Sexual Assault will be available on the night for referral and advice.
