The Bahrain Darts Masters will remain on the darts calendar in 2027, with the tournament now confirmed for 14 and 15 January. For some time, uncertainty surrounded the event's future due to unrest in the Middle East, but the PDC has ended that speculation by locking in the dates. Bahrain will once again host the opening event of the World Series of Darts.
The fifth edition of the Bahrain Darts Masters will once again take place at Terminal 4 by Beyon. Over the two-day event, eight PDC stars will face eight representatives from Asia. Confirmation of the tournament ends the uncertainty over Bahrain's place on the World Series calendar, and despite geopolitical tensions in the region, preparations for the 2027 edition can now continue.
The Bahrain Darts Masters has welcomed several big names to its roll of honour in recent years. Luke Littler, Michael van Gerwen and Stephen Bunting are among those who have won the tournament. The players travelling to Bahrain in January have not yet been announced, with the PDC set to reveal the eight invited stars and their Asian opponents at a later date.
The Bahrain Darts Masters will once again launch the 2027 World Series of Darts outside Europe. The tournament gives international stars the chance to test themselves against players from the Asian darts scene shortly after the World Darts Championship. The PDC confirmed the return on social media: "The Bahrain Darts Masters will return on January 14-15 to kick off the 2027 World Series of Darts, with tickets now on sale."
