The 2025/26 World Darts Championship dates
The 2026 World Darts Championship is set to take place from the 11th of December 2025 until the 3rd of January 2026. That’s three whole weeks of darts action, live on our Sky Sports screens all the way through Christmas and New Year’s!
The 2025/26 World Darts Championship players
After Luke Littler’s record-breaking win last year, we can expect a lineup of familiar faces and new talent in this year’s World Darts Championship. This year, 128 players will step up to the oche in the first round to compete for their share of the £5 million cash prize in the most iconic darts venue in the world.Who’s on our watch list? We’re glad you asked...
Luke Littler
The nation’s sweetheart will once again take to the stage at Ally Pally to defend his first-ever world title. Following a busy year, the youngster will aim to add another major trophy to his ever-growing cabinet to start 2026 in style.Luke Humphries
Consistently topping the PDC Order of Merit, Luke Humphries will look to regain his World Champion title after losing out in the 2025 edition. Can Cool Hand Luke make a comeback this year?
Stephen Bunting
British-born and an icon in his own right, Stephen Bunting has won some major tournaments this year so far and is a safe bet for the 2026 World Darts Champion title. Once again, the Brits are coming out in full force to bring another trophy home!
The 2025/26 World Darts Championship final
On the 3rd of January at 8pm, two players will play to the best of 13 legs in the 2025/26 World Darts Championship final. Throwing for the chance to win £1,000,000, the Sid Waddel trophy and the prestigious title of World Darts Champion, the final is always a night of excitement, fancy dress and all the classic darts tunes we know and love.
