How Do I Get World Darts Championship Tickets for 2025/2026?

Why the World Darts Championship Sells Out Fast

The darts crowd is unlike anything in sport.

You’re not just buying a ticket to watch the top players throw 180s. You’re stepping into a full-on atmosphere of singing, fancy dress and energy that feels more like a festival than a typical sporting event.

Held annually at Alexandra Palace in London, the tournament runs through December and into the New Year. With the likes of Michael van Gerwen, Luke Littler and other stars taking the stage, the standard of darts has never been higher and the demand for seats proves it. Tickets typically sell out within hours of release, especially for weekend sessions and the final.

Key World Darts Championship Dates

While the full schedule for the 2025/2026 Darts World Championship will be confirmed by the Professional Darts Corporation closer to the time, here’s what you can expect based on previous years:

• Start Date: Mid-December 2025
  
• Final Date: Early January 2026
  
• Venue: Alexandra Palace, London
  

The tournament features afternoon and evening sessions nearly every day. Finals week is always the most in-demand.

How to Buy Darts World Championship Tickets

There are two main routes for purchasing darts world championship tickets:

‍

1. General Sale

Tickets are released via the PDC’s official ticketing partners, usually in phases. You'll need to:

• Register for priority access on the PDC website
  
• Be logged in at the moment of release
  
• Expect high traffic and queues especially for weekend and later-round sessions
  

Prices vary by session and seating tier. Tables near the stage go fast. Cheaper options are available in the rear and tiered areas but they still offer a solid view of the action.

‍

2. Hospitality and Packages

For those looking for a smoother experience, World Darts Championship hospitality packages are often available through official partners. These packages typically include:

• Guaranteed seats with excellent views
  
• Food and drink included or available on-site
  
• Dedicated access routes and lounges
  
• Sometimes extras like signed merchandise or meet-and-greet opportunities
  

These are especially useful for corporate groups or fans wanting to make a full day of it.

What to Expect on the Day

If this is your first visit to Ally Pally for the darts, here’s what you should prepare for:

• Fancy dress is standard – You’ll see everything from superheroes to bananas
  
• Singing and chanting – The crowd knows their songs
  
• Bar queues – They move quickly but it’s wise to arrive early
  
• Cold weather – Dress warm outside, even if things heat up inside
  

There are shuttle buses from Wood Green and Alexandra Palace stations, making travel easier. Still, it’s best to arrive with plenty of time before your session.

‍

Plan Ahead Or Miss Out

There’s no casual way to attend the World Darts Championship. Tickets disappear quickly, especially for the final stages. And while resale exists, prices can jump significantly.

If you're serious about going in 2025/2026, mark your calendar, sign up for updates and make sure you’re online when tickets drop. Even better, consider a package if you want to skip the scramble.
