September 2026 Alumni Update

Those autumn leaves are starting to fall but don't forget about your Bluecoats!

Bleed Blue at Finals: 3 Ways to Get 2027 Tickets! 💙🎺

Tickets are only available through Drum Corps International. Bluecoats, and other corps, do not have sections or access codes.

1. Friends of DCI: Join the donor program for the earliest exclusive pre-sale access to lock in prime 50-yard line seats - Join by Sept. 30

2. Super 3 Packages: Grab a 3-night bundle covering Prelims, Semifinals, and Finals for the ultimate weekend experience - Reserve by Sept. 30

3. General Public Sale: Buy single-night tickets when they open up to the public to secure your spot for Saturday night's final showdown - access available in early December 

Indy Hotels: Want to stay in the official Bluecoats hotel block for finals? Follow this link for our hotel block.  Want more options or a different location?  Book through DCI.  There is no financial benefit for the corps in booking through the Bluecoats link, just the ability to be in the two hotels designated for Bluecoat family and friends.

Did you know that when you contribute to The Shield, half of your donation is invested in our endowment, keeping your original gift intact forever. Be part of the mission to create performing arts experiences that inspire, educate, and promote excellence. Join the Shield
