  • Camps are open to musician & color guard students who want to audition for the 2025 Bluecoats or who want to get the Bluecoats Experience.

    Students will learn from our world-class educational team, meet other talented young performers from around the world, learn about the Bluecoats approach, and complete an individual audition.

  • While the role of Drum Major is reserved for veteran members of the corps, conductor auditions are open to anyone.

    Conductor round one auditions will take place at the December Callback Camp on December 21-22 in Canton, OH.

    Please email us at join@bluecoats.com for more information.
