PDC Premier League 2027

4 February – 27 May 2027

The 2027 Premier League Darts runs from 4 February to 27 May 2027 over seventeen league nights in the United Kingdom and Europe. Eight players compete for total prize money of £1,250,000, with Luke Littler the defending champion.

The 2027 Premier League Darts is the PDC's invitational series, launched in 2005, and next year it once again travels to seventeen different venues in the United Kingdom and Europe. It all starts on Thursday 4 February 2027 at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow, and the title is decided on Thursday 27 May 2027 at Finals Night at The O2 in London. Eight players battle over sixteen regular league nights for the four play-off places. The top four of the PDC world ranking are qualified automatically, while the remaining four spots are handed out by the PDC as wildcards after the 2027 World Championship; at the end of October 2026 the PDC had not yet announced its official line-up for 2027. Since 2022 every league night has been a mini-tournament with four quarter-finals, two semi-finals and a final, with every match played over best of 11 legs. The winner of the night picks up five points and a £10,000 bonus, the losing finalist three points and the semi-finalists two points each. For German fans, 11 February 2027 is the key date: that is when the series stops in Berlin for the eighth time, played at the Uber Arena, which holds 12,000 spectators. The other stops outside Great Britain and Ireland are Antwerp (25 March, AFAS Dome) and Rotterdam (15 April, Rotterdam Ahoy). The total prize money is once again £1,250,000, of which £350,000 goes to the overall winner. The defending champion is Luke Littler, who won the 2026 final 11-10 against Luke Humphries. The record winner of the Premier League is Michael van Gerwen with seven titles, ahead of Phil Taylor with six.
