All of the darts will be shown on a dedicated Sky Sports channel Sky Sports Darts with Tuesday 15 December seeing the first session starting at 17:45pm solely on that channel.
Following that, Sky Sports Main Event and Darts will broadcast the tournament for the most part with 12:00pm and 6pm starts. Both sessions will start an hour earlier than normal likely due to staggered times for fans to arrive and measures in place to make the venue COVID secure.
Saturday 19 December and Monday 21 December will see coverage solely on the Darts channel throughout the day. The Sky Sports Darts schedule after the Christmas break will be confirmed as soon as possible.
