The Vikingland Drum Corps Classic was a wonderful addition to the excitement of the Vikingland Band Festival weekend
in Alexandria, Minnesota. The Classic featured nationally ranked drum and
bugle corps in field show competition. Groups such as the Madison
Scouts, Phantom Regiment, Cavaliers, Troopers, Glassmen, Minnesota Brass
and many others drew standing ovations year after year. The event was
held in Alexandria from 1991-2003 but was discontinued when Drum Corps
Midwest and Drum Corps International changed the way they scheduled the
summer tour. It became nearly impossible logistically and financially to
obtain the top-ranked corps that the event had traditionally included.
This website remains online as an archive of photographs, scores and
a list of the 30 different corps that performed during the Classic's
13-year history.
The Vikingland Band Festival parade continues and is held each year on the last Sunday in June.
