Mission: We sing so that LGBTQ+ people can live their truth through quality music experiences that inspire audiences, open minds, change hearts, and affirm our common humanity. Vision: A diverse world united. The Gay Men's Chorus of South Florida (GMCSF) is a vibrant community of voices, blending generations and cultures in harmony with one mission: to shape a brighter, more inclusive future through music. GMCSF stands as a powerful force for advocacy, using the universal language of music to transcend social barriers and uplift the LGBTQ+ community.
With a roster of over 180 talented singers, GMCSF is the largest gay men's chorus in the southeastern United States and one of the top ten LGBTQ+ choruses in the country. Our grand-scale concerts, meaningful community engagements, and volunteer-driven outreach touch lives throughout South Florida and beyond. Under the direction of Artistic Director Gabe Salazar, GMCSF captivates annually ~35,000 live audience members while welcoming ~72,000 visitors to its growing digital platform, gmcsf.org.
A significant milestone was reached in December 2016 when GMCSF partnered with Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood to present its holiday concert at Hard Rock Live. What began as a landmark event has evolved into a dynamic nine-year partnership rooted in music, visibility, and community impact.
Our impact reaches from Miami Heat and Miami Marlins Pride Nights to the International Gay Polo Tournament in Wellington and Treasure Coast Pride Fest at the Saint Lucie County Fairgrounds, driven by the heart and dedication of our volunteers. GMCSF is dedicated to providing inclusive and welcoming experiences for all members of our community, regardless of physical ability. We prioritize ADA compliance at every venue, ensuring access through wheelchair ramps, designated seating, and mobility accommodations. To support our Deaf and hard-of-hearing patrons, we also provide American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters at select performances. But accessibility goes beyond logistics. Being part of the Chorus is a powerful act of visibility and pride. Our members don’t just sing, they stand as living symbols of joy, resilience, and community. They serve as mentors for younger generations, champions for equity, and advocates for those who need a voice.
A MESSAGE FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
GABE SALAZAR
"INVINCIBLE: A Season of Strength, Sizzle & Song" Season 16 is an invitation for all of us to step into something larger than any single stage or chorus. We celebrate not only the resilience of the LGBTQ+ community but also the power of music to unite, uplift, and affirm who we are as a community. It is this unity and connection that make our community strong and give us the ability to endure whatever challenges may come our way. Each concert becomes a shared moment where our voices reflect courage, joy, and authenticity, reminding us that strength is multiplied when we come together as one. This season's journey is filled with experiences that mirror our collective spirit.
From the sparkle and camp of the holidays to an ABBA-inspired celebration that dares everyone to let loose, every performance is a chance to laugh, dance, and feel at home in our truth. As we close the season with a new composition honoring lives lost and hope renewed, we reaffirm the importance of remembering our past while daring to envision a brighter tomorrow. Season 16 belongs to all of us. It's a reminder that our community's story is one of triumph and joy, even in the face of hardship. Together, we prove that we are not just survivors; we are invincible.
