Veteran’s Gala 2026

An Evening of Honour, Recognition, and Support
19 September 2026
Royal Canadian Legion Branch #003, Brandon, MB

Join us for the inaugural Veteran’s Gala, a distinguished black-tie evening hosted by Zone 24 and Zone 25 Commands and their branches. This special event will help launch the Legion Centennial and Veterans’ Week, while also celebrating Brandon Legion Branch #003’s 100th Anniversary.

This memorable evening will honour a local Veteran and shine a light on the mental health challenges faced by Military members, RCMP, Veterans, and First Responders. Funds raised will support Project Resilience 911 and Paws 4 Valour, two local organizations providing programs and services free of charge to those they serve.
