Many D’Addario-endorsed groups won big at the 2018 Winter Guard International (WGI) Championships, winning six medals and announcing six artists joining the roster. 

The 2018 WGI Championships for percussion took place at the University of Dayton in Dayton, Ohio from April 19 to 21, 2018. This week-long event attracts hundreds of groups and 10,000 performers that compete to take the top honors in their class.

On Friday April 20, 2018, with the help of The Gridbook Series’ Mark Perrett as Press Secretary and Wright State University Department of Theater, D’Addario Percussion welcomed six new Promark endorsees:
