Darts fans are already setting their sights on next year's premier event, with the PDC World Darts Championship confirmed to return to London's iconic Alexandra Palace in the winter of 2026/2027. Following the climax of the 2026 tournament, anticipation is building for an even larger spectacle.
Expanded Venue and High Demand
Reflecting the sport's soaring popularity, the 2027 championship will mark a historic move within the venue. For the first time, the tournament will be held in Alexandra Palace's larger Great Hall. This significant expansion will allow an additional 70,000 spectators to attend across the duration of the competition, which runs from December 2026 to January 2027.
Despite the increased capacity, tickets are expected to be more sought-after than ever. The event has cemented its status as one of the UK's most beloved winter sporting occasions, meaning prospective attendees will need to act swiftly.
When and How to Secure Your Tickets
Official sales for the 2027 World Darts Championship will commence several months in advance, typically in August 2026. Based on the previous cycle, the first opportunity to purchase will be granted to PDCTV Annual Members. For the 2025/26 edition, this exclusive members' window opened at 12pm BST on Monday, August 4, 2025, with tickets selling out in a matter of hours.
Any remaining tickets after the members' sale are usually offered to the general public, often via a free ballot or general sale a few days later. However, demand has been so intense in recent years that public ballots have been bypassed due to immediate sell-outs.
The most reliable way to stay informed is to register for ticket alerts with the PDC and its official ticket partners. This will ensure you receive notification the moment sales go live for the 2027 tournament.
Expected Ticket Costs for 2027
While official pricing for 2027 is yet to be confirmed, previous years provide a clear guide. Early-round session tickets have historically cost in the region of £50 to £60. Prices rise as the tournament progresses, with mid-tournament sessions being more expensive.
Tickets for the semi-finals and final are the premium offering, with seats typically priced around £95, depending on the category. For those seeking a luxury experience, VIP and hospitality packages—including premium seating, food, and drinks—are available at a considerably higher cost, with details released closer to the sale date.
Given the likelihood of a rapid sell-out, the secondary resale market becomes an option, but at a steep premium. For the 2025/26 event, resale tickets started at a minimum of £146 and could exceed £350 for the latter stages on some platforms.
