If you have been waiting for the right excuse to make the trip out to Salamanca, this is it. Chicago — Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees and one of the longest-running bands in American rock — are bringing their full horn-driven sound to Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino on Saturday, November 14, 2026. Showtime is 8:00 PM.
A mid-November show at a casino Event Center in the Southern Tier has its own particular appeal: warm room, clean sightlines, and at 2,500 capacity, big enough to feel like a real concert without losing you in the crowd. For a band whose entire identity is built around a live horn section, an enclosed room like this is exactly where you want to hear them.
About Chicago
Formed in 1967 in Chicago, Illinois, the band distinguished themselves early by making their horn section the structural backbone of the music, not an accent. Original members Robert Lamm (keyboards), Lee Loughnane (trumpet), and James Pankow (trombone) are still performing together — that kind of continuity, nearly 60 years in, is part of what you are paying to see.
The accolades are substantial: Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Recording Academy, GRAMMY Hall of Fame induction (2014), and a Hollywood Walk of Fame star. Rolling Stone has called them one of the “most important bands in music since the dawn of the rock and roll era.” The November 14 Salamanca date is a standalone fall show — not part of their summer co-headlining run with Styx — so this one is all Chicago.
