The Ballarat RSL has survived a tumultuous 10 decades that saw many other branches fold.
The branch is stronger than ever and celebrated its centenary with a vehicle display, luncheon and dinner.
Branch president Alexandra Tascas said the event gave people with a variety of military links an opportunity to gather and share stories.
She said one man, who she had never met before, came and showed her a picture of his daughter who had given the first Anzac day speech in Ballarat by a woman. She was in the airforce.
Ms Tascas, an army veteran, said these stories showed the significance and importance of the RSL.
