In 2024, a tournament will be played in Switzerland for the first time. Basel will in fact host one of the Euro Tour tournaments. There will also be two Euro Tours in Belgium (Wieze and Antwerp) and one in the Netherlands (Rosmalen), among others.
An important change has been made regarding the Players Championship tournaments. These will only be played on weekdays in 2024 at playing venues in Wigan, Leicester, Hildesheim and Milton Keynes.
The new season kicks off from January 8 to 14 with the PDC Q-School in Kalkar and Milton Keynes, where several PDC Tour Cards can again be earned. Then, on Feb. 1 in Cardiff, the new season of Premier League Darts kicks off. On Thursday, April 18, it is Ahoy Rotterdam's turn again. The final night is on May 23 in London.
The first televised tournament of the season is the Masters in Milton Keynes from Feb. 2 to 4. The UK Open in Minehead is scheduled from March 1 to 3. From June 27 to 30 is the World Cup of Darts in Frankfurt, before the World Matchplay takes place July 13 to 21 in Blackpool.
Amsterdam hosts the World Series of Darts Finals from Sept. 13 to 15. The World Grand Prix is scheduled from October 7 through 13. A venue for this tournament has yet to be announced.

The top 32 players on the 2024 PDC European Tour will compete for the title at the European Championship in Dortmund from Oct. 24 to 27. The Grand Slam of Darts is scheduled from Nov. 9 to 17 in Wolverhampton.
Then the top-64 of the Players Championship Order of Merit may compete in the Players Championship Finals in Minehead from November 22 to 24. Then again in December is the World Darts Championship.
In 2024, the PDC Challenge Tour, Development Tour and Women's Series will again consist of 24 tournaments each. In each of these, starting tickets for televised tournaments can be earned.

- Need to see her take part in the womens tour. She'll break the inernet.medinabello08-09-2026
- If he can be bothered? He won't play darts in Germany yet he'll go over and get an award!??rick6702-09-2026
- Why is this the main story? He chose not to compete in loads of tournaments,yes he's number 1 in the world,but he does have to turn up at tournaments! Play the next world championship in Dortmund and see if he turns up!!rick6727-08-2026
- This is exactly what I mean,littler survives the 1st round,I think you'll find a lot of other players did. Can you just report on the real sport,and not just 1 person. I like Luke,but this is getting boring now,as Kevin painter once said to Taylor!! The sport is about every player,not 1 who everyone seems to have put the sport on the map.,which he hasn't,he's just got in when the money is massive. Great as he is,it seems like what's the point in anyone trying,he's going to win everything,unless it's in Germany or Australia!!!rick6726-08-2026
- I mean look, Littler's picture is first,wattimena is second and he won! Level it up. I know littler is fantastic,but the sport was here before him,and will be when he's retired. Any player in the top 64/128 can beat each other,it's not big news. Poor Jermaine,wins it,and not even the headline!!rick6726-08-2026
- I appreciate that littler is a fantastic player,but the top 3 articles are about him. Before he'd thrown a dart in the tournament. Level it out a bit, Taylor and van gerwen soon got disliked as the media could only see them,and nobody else seemed to matterrick6725-08-2026
- The two-point Lucky Loser qualifiers are Ross Smith, Robb, Whitlock, Sakai, Ilagan and Toylo. Jermaine is not on the entries list on Dartconnect for the TCH qualifier so the four from the main OoM are probably Searle, Nijman, Dobey, Wattimena.Scoobedybop24-08-2026
