The official 2018 WGI Color Guard World Championships schedules are finally here. It seems like it was just last week that groups were posting show announcements and offering their first looks at the brand-new floors, costumes, and silks that would define the 2018 season.

But now, everything comes to an exhilarating, dramatic, and certainly artistic close at the University of Dayton Arena in Dayton, Ohio, on April 12-14.

The World Championships kick off on Thursday, April 12, with FIVE venues full of prelims performances. On Friday, April 13, groups will perform for a second time as the semifinals get underway at three separate venues with coveted spots in the finals at stake. Finally, on Saturday, April 14, you can catch the culmination of WGl's color guard division World Championship finals at two venues—the Nutter Center for A Class finals and UD Arena for Open and World Class finals.
