This marks the 11th film concert the Chicago Philharmonic has performed at The Auditorium since 2022.

And who doesn’t love a good treasure hunt? Directed by Richard Donner and written by Chris Columbus from a story by Steven Spielberg, The Goonies follows a group of kids who stumble upon an old map and set off on a thrilling journey to find hidden treasure—dodging traps, facing villains, and bonding along the way. It’s packed with heart, laughs, and yes, Baby Ruth bars.

Don’t miss your chance to see—and hear—your favorite films like never before. Goonies never say die, but tickets definitely do sell out.
