Download 2024 DCI World Championship Performances
While a large selection of video performances from across the 2024 DCI Tour are currently available for streaming via FloMarching.com, DCI’s newly-released audio offerings will be the only downloadable multimedia made available from the summer of 2024.
With decreasing demand for audio/visual products over many years and with the significantly increased production and licensing costs compared to their audio counterparts, offering video downloads proved to be an impractical challenge at this time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where/How will audio from the 2024 DCI World Championships be released?

Individual performances or a complete bundle of all performances are available exclusively from MarchingMusicDownloads.com. At this time there are no plans to make audio downloads available via Apple Music or Amazon.
Will video products/downloads also be offered?
Due to decreasing demand for fixed media (DVD/Blu-ray) and the cost of A/V sync licensing for video products, video from the 2024 DCI World Championships will not be available through Drum Corps International.

Why does it take so long after the summer to release this year's audio files?
