Introducing the Pride Corpus Christi Performer Portal
April 25, 2025A New Era of Visibility, Connection, and Opportunity
Pride Corpus Christi is proud to unveil the Performer Portal—our streamlined, application-based hub created to elevate LGBTQIA+ entertainers across South Texas and beyond. Whether you are a drag artist, musician, comedian, spoken-word poet, or cultural dance troupe, the Portal is designed to showcase your talent, connect you with producers, and ensure you receive the recognition you deserve on—and off—our stages.
How It Works
-
Apply Once
Submit a single, comprehensive application outlining your experience, media links, and performance preferences.
-
Approval & Access
Approved applicants receive secure, password-free access to the Portal, unlocking a suite of promotional tools.
-
Dynamic Artist Profile
• Upload high-resolution images for marketing materials
• Link to Spotify, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Linktree, and more
• Share Cash App or Venmo handles for on-screen tipping during shows
• Update bios, pronouns, rates, and availability in real time
Tools Tailored for Professional Growth
Once inside, performers can:
-
Manage Media Assets – keep an up-to-date gallery we can pull from for posters, social, and livestream overlays.
-
Centralize Social Links – drive traffic to your channels with one click.
-
Set Preferred Rates – communicate fees transparently to event producers.
-
Receive Targeted Opportunities – be first in line when new Pride Corpus Christi bookings open.
Coming Soon: The Performer Directory
In the next development sprint, we will launch a public, searchable directory for festival organizers, venue owners, and corporate event planners. Performers who opt-in will gain year-round exposure to new audiences and paid engagements beyond Pride-run events, further expanding South Texas’ creative economy.
What This Means for 2025’s Block Party & Parade
For the first time, every approved performer’s profile will be automatically appended to their scheduled slot in our Block Party and Parade lineup:
-
Online schedules will feature your photo, bio, and streaming links.
-
On-site screens will display your tipping handles and social tags.
-
Media partners will draw directly from your profile, guaranteeing accurate, up-to-date promotion.
The result is a robust, fully integrated schedule that celebrates each artist’s unique story while helping attendees discover—and support—new talent.
