7th Regiment presented its debut performance in March, 2004, in the New Haven St. Patrick's Day Parade, and entered Drum Corps International (DCI) Division III competition in the summer. The 36-member corps performed a program called "Beethoven's Last Night."
The 96-member 2014 corps finished 5th in Open Class and 25th in World Class, which earned full DCI membership. Although the corps has continued to grow in size, that was its best finish to date.
Through 2019, 7th Regiment attended the DCI World Championships every year but 2007. That year, the championships were held at the Rose Bowl in Pasedena, California. In a fortuitous decision, the corps leadership determined that going way out west was too expensive and opted to save the money--- right on the verge of the Great Recession that severely damaged the drum corps activity along with so much more.
Also through 2019, 7th Regiment advanced to DCI Open Class Finals eleven consecutive years.
The 2020 season was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The corps was also inactive during the noncompetitive 2021 season, returning to the field in 2022 to continue its string of Open Class Finals appearances.
