No Australian "celebrates" ANZAC day. We commemorate ANZAC day, meaning we remember the ANZACs who lost their lives during the Gallipoli campaign of WW1. The reason this campaign is so important to Australia is because it was where Australia's national identity was forged. Where for the first time Australia fought as its own force, therefore becoming an integral part of the Australian identity.
They don't. They commemorate it, in order to honour those in the defence forces who have lost their lives fighting for, or on behalf of, our country. ANZAC Day is a day of solemn remembrance. Although originally a day of remembrance for those troops in WWI who gave their lives in the campaign at Gallipoli, it has now extended to include those involved in all wars.

How do Turkish people celebrate Anzac day?
I'm not sure they celebrate it (don't get me wrong because they might, but I'm not Turkish). ANZAC is short for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, so I'm not sure about the Turkish. Although I may well be wrong... The Turkish people do not celebrate ANZAC Day. For them, the day of the first ANZAC landing and the months that followed were just more campaigns in World War I. 25 April 1915 holds no special significance for them.
