Christ is Risen!
Further to our previous communication regarding the forthcoming Patriarchal Visit of His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and the Nameday celebrations of His Eminence Archbishop Nikitas, we are pleased to inform you that reservations for the Nameday Gala Banquet are now open.
The Gala Banquet will take place on Tuesday, 15 September 2026, at the London Hilton Park Lane (W1K 1BE). Guests are kindly asked to arrive at 6.30pm for a 7.00pm start.
Tables may be reserved for either 10 or 12 persons, at a cost of £120 per person and must be paid when making the reservation.
Payments may be made:
- by bank transfer, using the reference: GALA 77
- or by cheque payable to the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, again clearly marked with the reference : GALA 77
The correct reference is very important for the proper processing and allocation of tables. The number is listed in the Archdiocesan Calendar (where the Middlesbrough community is No 77).
Kindly also inform us of any dietary requirements when submitting your reservation.
Please note that tables will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
For bookings and information please call Archon Louis Loizou at 07734 100100
With deep respect,
Archdeacon George Tsourous
