Founded in 1927, the Danbury Drum Corps (Formerly The Hatters Drum Corps) has been a proud fixture of the Connecticut community for nearly a century. What began almost 100 years ago has grown into a modern, all-inclusive drum corps, featuring an ensemble of brass, fifes, drums, bells, and color guard.

Our mission is to deliver high‑energy, accessible music and color to local parades, events, and community celebrations—while welcoming new members of all ages and skill levels. No prior musical training? No problem! We provide all equipment, music, and uniforms so you can hit the street fast .
