The DCE European Championships will be held in the Parkstad Limburg Stadium until 2017. Drum Corps Europe and Roda JC have signed a five-year contract.

The event moved from Rotterdam (where Sparta was its host) to the Parkstad Limburg Stadium in 2008. Meanwhile, the DCE European Championships have become the biggest drum corps event in Europe. The Parkstad Limburg Stadion is a beautiful stadium where Drum Corps Europe, the corps and the drum corps fans feel perfectly at home.

DCE is happy with the multi-year contract. "We feel comfortable in Kerkrade and at Roda JC", said board member Rob Beeren. "Both the city and the football club have a long tradition with music and show. Both the corps and music lovers know where they need to be in the coming years."
