The
PDC continues its European expansion as Berlin becomes the newest Premier League host city. Opening night will move away from England for the first time, heading to Dublin, Ireland, before heading to last years judgement night venue, Cardiff. Newcastle will be the first English city to host in week 3.
Berlin will take its turn in week 4. Its unlikely the German capital will have a home nation favourite participating, so crowd allegiances could be interesting. Gary Anderson and Peter Wright will get there first taste of a home crowd in Glasgow week 8.
With Judgement week the following week, the home crowd could play a pivotal factor in deciding who is relegated.
Judgement night will be in Belfast this year. Should Daryl Gurney be selected for the league being at home could be a huge advantage in a survival battle.
Michael van Gerwen and Raymond van Barneveld will get there home crowd in week 12. The hugely popular Ahoy in Rotterdam will host for a third year running after selling out for the previous 2.
The final 2 events remain in the same order as last year. Aberdeen hosting the final week or regular season action before heading to the o2 for finals night.
