The Alexandra Palace will remain the home of the 2021/22 PDC World Darts Championship until at least the end of 2024/25 with a new four year deal agreed with the venue.
Moving to the venue from the Circus Tavern ahead of the 2007/2008, it has become a pilgrimage for darting fans who flock to the annual tournament.
But with tickets for the 2021/22 tournament which will be under full capacity going on sale, there is further reason to celebrate with fans set to flock there until at least 2025.
"The William Hill World Darts Championship has become synonymous with Alexandra Palace and it's fantastic news to agree a new four-year deal with this historic venue," said PDC Chief Executive Matt Porter.
"There are few atmospheres in sport which can match a full Ally Pally during the World Championship, and we've seen so many historic moments during the past 14 years - including nine-darters, Phil Taylor's farewell in a final and Fallon Sherrock's famous wins two years ago.
"The next four years will give more players the chance to follow in the footsteps of players like Phil Taylor, Michael van Gerwen, Gary Anderson, Peter Wright and reigning World Champion Gerwyn Price in lifting the Sid Waddell Trophy - we can't wait!"
