Drum Corps Japan is the administrating organization for Drum and Bugle Corps activity in Japan. Most DCJ competitions are held indoors on a floor with far different markings from those used in DCI, DCA, and most western drum corps competitions. The main exception to this is the Tokyo Open which is held outdoors, in a Baseball stadium.
