DCI World Championships Wiki Information
At the end of the summer season, Drum Corps International (DCI) World Class corps compete to earn the title of DCI World Class Champion
(formerly DCI Division I World Champion
). The championships consist of 3 rounds—Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and Finals—held on the first or second Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of August. All active World Class corps (22 corps as of 2009) compete in the Quarterfinals, with the top 17 advancing to the Semifinals. The top 12 corps from Semifinals then advance to the Finals. The champion is determined by the overall high score in the Finals competition. There are also a number of caption
awards (high brass, high percussion, high visual, etc.), though the process of determination for those awards has changed from year to year.
In DCI's 38-season history, only 8 corps have won the title (including 3 ties):
- Blue Devils – 13 titles (2 ties)
- The Cadets – 9 titles (1 tie)
- The Cavaliers – 7 titles (1 tie)
- Santa Clara Vanguard – 6 titles (1 tie)
- Madison Scouts – 2 titles
- Phantom Regiment – 2 titles (1 tie)
- Anaheim Kingsmen – 1 title
- Star of Indiana – 1 title
The Kingsmen and Star of Indiana are no longer in active competition. The remaining six corps are often referred to as the "Top 6", due to their consistently high performance and fan support. These corps also typically attract the greatest number of prospective members each year. The historical "Top 6" corps have not finished in positions 1–6 every year; however, since 1987 only six corps [1] outside the "Top 6" (excluding Star of Indiana) have managed to place in one of the top six positions, and only one has ever finished higher than fourth.

DCI WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS TICKETS
|
At the end of the summer season, Drum Corps International (DCI) World Class corps compete to earn the title of DCI World Class Champion
(formerly DCI Division I World Champion
). The championships consist of 3 rounds—Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and Finals—held on the first or second Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of August. All active World Class corps (22 corps as of 2009) compete in the Quarterfinals, with the top 17 advancing to the Semifinals. The top 12 corps from Semifinals then advance to the Finals. The champion is determined by the overall high score in the Finals competition. There are also a number of caption
awards (high brass, high percussion, high visual, etc.), though the process of determination for those awards has changed from year to year.
In DCI's 38-season history, only 8 corps have won the title (including 3 ties):
- Blue Devils – 13 titles (2 ties)
- The Cadets – 9 titles (1 tie)
- The Cavaliers – 7 titles (1 tie)
- Santa Clara Vanguard – 6 titles (1 tie)
- Madison Scouts – 2 titles
- Phantom Regiment – 2 titles (1 tie)
- Anaheim Kingsmen – 1 title
- Star of Indiana – 1 title
The Kingsmen and Star of Indiana are no longer in active competition. The remaining six corps are often referred to as the "Top 6", due to their consistently high performance and fan support. These corps also typically attract the greatest number of prospective members each year. The historical "Top 6" corps have not finished in positions 1–6 every year; however, since 1987 only six corps [1] outside the "Top 6" (excluding Star of Indiana) have managed to place in one of the top six positions, and only one has ever finished higher than fourth.
