DCI 2015


Drum corps fans can watch the opening event of 2015 live from Lucas Oil Stadium or in movie theaters across the country.
As it did in 2014, the Drum Corps International Tour will kick off in the same city it will end, with a lineup of the Blue Stars, Bluecoats, Cadets, Carolina Crown, Cavaliers and Madison Scouts competing in Indianapolis on Wednesday, June 17. Adding to the excitement of opening night, the “DCI Tour Premiere” will be staged in Lucas Oil Stadium and will be broadcast live for the very first time in movie theaters across the country.
The following weekend will include stops in Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan and Illinois, adding the Boston Crusaders, Crossmen and Troopers to the lineup of corps from opening night.
Competition on the West Coast will get underway on June 19 in Clovis, California, with the longstanding DCI West event returning to Stanford Stadium on Saturday, June 20.
California corps will welcome Phantom Regiment to their home state this summer, when the Illinois corps tours the West Coast after recent visits in 2008, 2011 and 2012.
In the last decade Regiment has traveled west more than any other Midwestern corps, which Executive Director Rick Valenzuela says is in part at the suggestion of his corps members.
"In a year-end survey we always ask our members to fill out, the West Coast is consistently noted as a location of where they'd like to tour most," Valenzuela said. "The weather is always great and the crowds always have so many fans."
