For nearly a half century, Drum Corps International, Marching Music’s Major League™,  has been the leader in producing events for the world’s most elite and  exclusive marching ensembles for student musicians and performers. 

Thirteen original founding member organizations formed the Drum Corps  International collective in 1971 to organize and unify leadership for  youth-focused competitive drum corps events throughout North  America. Directors of those competing groups sought to unite their corps  by providing opportunities to perform together—in the end building a  foundation for future success.

A non-profit entity was officially established in 1972, and today DCI  supports numerous programs around the globe while sanctioning  participating recognized drum corps, SoundSport® performance ensembles and DrumLine Battle™ teams performing in more than 100 competitive events that make up the annual Drum Corps International Tour.

With a vast reach online at DCI.org, through corporate sponsorship,  annual broadcast initiatives, and outreach to high school music  programs, Drum Corps International delivers the message of “excellence  in performance and in life” to more than 7.2 million young people, ages  13-22 involved in the performing arts across the United States.

Mission Statement:
The mission of Drum Corps International is to bring the  life-enriching benefits and enjoyment of marching music performing arts  to more people worldwide. We do this by creating a stage for  participating organizations to engage in education, competition,  entertainment, and the promotion of individual growth.

Vision Statement:
A world in which the positive life-transforming personal and societal  benefits of marching music performing arts are widely recognized and enjoyed.
