The 2026 PDC Pro Tour season reaches its climax with Players Championship 33 and 34, taking place on November 4 and 5 at Leicester Arena. Both events will run from 13:00 to 19:00 and will be streamed live on PDCTV.
The 2026 Players Championship series comprises 34 events in total, held at venues including Halle 39 in Hildesheim, Robin Park Tennis Centre in Wigan, Leicester Arena, Arena MK in Milton Keynes, and Maaspoort in Den Bosch – the latter marking ProTour darts' return to Holland after a long absence. However, Leicester hosts the vast majority of the tournaments.
As ever, the field is subject to change, with Premier League players likely to pick and choose their events. Luke Littler and Luke Humphries, for instance, have either said they will in part skip some tournaments or only play in Wigan. Other top names have previously snubbed playing in Germany due to travel. Expect Littler, Humphries, Gian van Veen, Michael van Gerwen and Gerwyn Price to feature at various points throughout the year.
The main goal for players is to qualify for the Players Championship Finals in Minehead, held towards the back end of 2026 before the PDC World Darts Championship. Littler and others had issues qualifying last year, adding an extra dynamic to the race to the finish.
Fans can watch all matches on the four main boards live via PDCTV, the PDC's official streaming channel. Subscription options include a monthly pass (£9.99), an annual subscription (£59.99) or a flexible multi-day short-use pass. This offers a unique opportunity to experience the floor tournaments up close – where new stars emerge and established names sometimes lose out surprisingly early.
