New York City Gay Men's Chorus Sets 47th Season Featuring Pride, Holiday and Juneteenth Concerts

The New York City Gay Men's Chorus has officially announced its 47th concert season, titled In Full Flourish.

Across a dynamic lineup spanning holiday camp, radical transformation, public recognition, resilience, and Pride, the 2026–2027 season explores the music, humor, gestures, and shared language that help queer people find one another and claim space together.

Artistic Director John J. Atorino states, “I'm so thrilled to enter NYCGMC's 47th season as we sing together and chase joy all season long. This season, we'll perform in five iconic New York City venues while exploring the ways we find one another, connect, and celebrate as a community so that we can all flourish. Each week, I remind NYCGMC that we don't just sing next to each other—we sing with each other, a distinction that asks us to listen more deeply, see others around us, and recognize the power of our voices when they come together. That spirit of connection, joy, and belonging is at the heart of this season, and I can't wait to share it with our audiences and our city."

Through bold performances and stories drawn straight from the community, In Full Flourish honors not one path to visibility, but the many ways individuals become more fully themselves when voices are heard, understood, and raised together.

The following is the line-up for NYCGMC's 47th Season:
