The
Slovak Darts Open will take place between 19-21 June, 2026 and is the ninth of fifteen European Tour events held on the 2026 PDC ProTour.
It is also an event that has never been played with the tournament taking place in Slovakia for the first time in the city of Bratislava at Incheba.
The field will feature 48 players as well as £230,000 in prize money with £35,000 going to the winner. Gian van Veen, Michael van Gerwen, Jonny Clayton and Gerwyn Price are among the top names involved.
Luke Humphries and Luke Littler decided to snub the tournament. They play the World Cup of Darts but Humphries
admitted on X when criticised that going straight to New York was too much of a logistical nightmare and he believed that Littler would've also have played if it was better placed.
