Drum Corps International is a non-profit organization based in Indianapolis, Indiana, that coordinates competitive marching arts events for youth ensembles. It traces its origins to thirteen founding member groups in 1971 and was established as a non-profit in 1972 to unify leadership and coordinate North American competitions. The organization sanctions and supports participating drum corps, SoundSport ensembles, and DrumLine Battle teams, delivering more than 100 events that compose its annual tour. DCI extends its reach through online platforms, corporate sponsorships, broadcast initiatives, and outreach to high school music programs, engaging more than 7.2 million young people involved in the performing arts across the United States.

Its primary audience comprises student musicians and performers aged roughly 13 to 22 and the organizations that field them in competition, providing a stage for education, competition, entertainment, and personal growth. A recent development in 2026 involved leadership transition following the departure of chief executive Nate Boudreaux in May.
