Feel the Pulse. Hear the Power.

The K-State Drumline is the heartbeat of the Pride of Wildcat Land—a dynamic, high-energy section that brings unmatched intensity and spirit to every performance. Whether driving the pulse of a stadium halftime show or igniting crowd energy at pep rallies, the K-State Drumline is known for excellence in performance, innovation, and Wildcat pride.

Auditions

Auditions for the drumline take place each spring and are open to all K-State current and incoming students. The audition process focuses on rhythm accuracy, technique, and the ability to play within a team-oriented ensemble.

2026 Drumline audition process and packets will be posted in spring 2026

Clinics and Camps

Each summer, the K-State Drumline hosts clinics and a multi-day Drumline Mini-Camp open to incoming and returning members. These events are a great way to improve technique, connect with other percussionists, and prepare for auditions and the season ahead.
