Contact the DCI Group Experience Specialist at 317-275-1212 ext. 33 for details.
The competing drum & bugle corps are typically independent, non-profit organizations that are not affiliated with a specific school. Corps draw their members from the regional, national and even international level with members in the Open and World Class corps ranging in age from 13 to 22. Most of the students have gained experience in their high school or college marching bands. Corps hold auditions in November and rehearse monthly during the winter to prepare for the summer tour.
Thirty-two Open and World Class DCI corps are scheduled to perform at the DCI World Championship Prelims in Indianapolis.
