DCI Tour Premiere
Monday, June 23 | 6:30 p.m. local time
The “DCI Tour Premiere” will be shown in movie theaters for one night only, Monday, June 23, marking the fourth straight year that DCI has produced this early-season showcase to kick off the start of the annual DCI Summer Tour.
The cinema event will be taped at the Innovations in Brass competition in Akron, Ohio, Saturday, June 21, before it’s rebroadcast in more than 400 movie theaters across the country just two days later.
Spectators will get a look at a dynamic group of corps that will be vying for the 2014 DCI World Championship title, including the defending Champion Carolina Crown, along with the Bluecoats, Boston Crusaders, Madison Scouts, Phantom Regiment, Cadets and Cavaliers. Along with the performances of these groups, theatergoers will get a preview of all that’s in store for the more than 100-event DCI Tour in June, July and August.
“Even a decade after first being shown in movie theaters, we’re continually impressed at how many people support our Drum Corps at the Cinema events, and how that support grows each season,” DCI Director of Business Development John DeNovi said. “Theater attendance has been on the rise over several years as more and more marching music enthusiasts take advantage of these opportunities to gather with their friends, sport their team colors and head out to the cinema to mark the official opening of the summer drum corps season.”
