Greek singer Giorgos Tsalikis will return to the National Hellenic Museum Gala on Saturday, September 26, at the Hilton Chicago.
The reception begins at 6 p.m., followed at 7 p.m. by dinner, an auction, music and dancing. Tsalikis is scheduled to perform at 10 p.m. The Hilton Chicago is located at 720 South Michigan Avenue.
Tsalikis also performed at the museum’s 2025 gala, which the museum reported drew more than 630 guests and raised more than $1 million. His 2026 performance is sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. Ernest C. Karras and John and Martha Cannis.
The gala supports the museum’s work sharing Greek history, art, and culture and preserving the Greek-American story through its collections, oral histories, exhibitions, and educational programs. Founded in 1983, the National Hellenic Museum opened its current building in Chicago’s Greektown in 2011.
Tickets and sponsorship packages are available on the museum’s official Gala 2026 page, which also includes a link to reserve rooms at the Hilton Chicago. Sponsorship questions may be directed to Chief Development Officer Janet Kashuba at jkashuba@hellenicmuseum.org or 312-488-2850. The museum says additional program details will be announced later.
Please confirm event details with the organizers before attending, as dates, times, locations, and registration information may change.
