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 broadcast live on PDCTV.
The Players Championship series comprises 34 events in 2026, 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 visit to Den Bosch marked ProTour darts' return to Holland for the first time in a long while, though Leicester hosts the vast majority of the tournaments.
The main goal for players is to qualify for the Players Championship Finals in Minehead, which take place towards the back end of 2026 before the PDC World Darts Championship. Luke 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. The floor tournaments offer a unique opportunity to see new stars emerge and established names sometimes lose out surprisingly early.
The field for the final two events is subject to change, with Premier League players in particular likely to pick and choose their appearances. Luke Littler and Luke Humphries, for instance, have either said they will in part skip some events or only play in Wigan, while other top names have previously snubbed playing in Germany due to travel. Expect Littler, Luke Humphries, Gian van Veen, Michael van Gerwen, and Gerwyn Price at junctures throughout the year.
