"For the first time ever, fans of all-age drum corps world wide will be able to enjoy the outstanding performances of all 21 prelims competitors as they take the field at our Championship event," said Gil Silva, President of Drum Corps Associates. "We are very pleased to be launching the DCA Fan Network and are looking forward to introducing our unique brand of entertainment to a new audience. We'll also be providing our existing fans with the opportunity to join us for all of the prelims excitement, should they not be making the trip to Rochester this year. It will undoubtedly provide a great ending to what has been an outstanding season for the corps and fans."
Another highlight of the upcoming Championship Weekend will be the ability for drum corps fans to purchase advance tickets to the 2012 DCA World Championships at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, Md.
Representatives will be on hand Saturday, Sept. 3 and Sunday, Sept. 4 (next weekend) in Rochester to take orders and assist fans with seat selection to ensure that the early birds will in fact get the very best seats when the event rolls into its new home next year.
For those not in attendance, online ordering for 2012 World Championship tickets will begin on Tuesday, Sept. 6 at 9 a.m. ET through the Drum Corps Associates website.
