Police praise Sydney Anzac gatherings

ONLY one arrest has been made during Anzac celebrations in Sydney despite the largest turnout for years, with police praising the good behaviour of the crowds.

The "actions and reverence" of those attending the dawn service and march in Sydney reflected the importance of the occasion, police said in a statement on Thursday.

The dawn service was packed to capacity and more than 15,000 people were involved in the Anzac Day march, "the largest seen for a number of years", Assistant Commissioner Mark Murdoch said in the statement.

"It was an outstanding occasion, and both safe and successful for veterans, their families and community members," Mr Murdoch said.

"The support from the public, and the way in which they behaved today, generally reflected the reverence and esteem in which Anzac day is held by all Australians."

The person arrested was a 54-year-old woman, who was issued with a criminal infringement notice for offensive behaviour.

Hundred of officers from general duties, the riot squad, dog squad, mounted police, highway patrol and PolAir have been on patrol since about 2am (AEST) to deal with the crowds.

Extra police are also patrolling licensed venues.
