The final of the 2024/25 World Darts Championship will take place on Friday January 3, the Professional Darts Corporation confirmed as the tournament schedule was released.
The sport’s showpiece event will get under way on Sunday December 15 at Alexandra Palace, with Luke Humphries seeking to defend his title after beating Luke Littler in a thrilling final earlier this year.
The PDC has released the full tournament schedule, with the usual three-day break from Christmas Eve to Boxing Day and a night off for New Year’s Eve in place.
In what is sure to be a raucous atmosphere at Ally Pally, the final will take place on a Friday night for the first time since 2020, at which time there was no crowd due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The finalists will be whittled down from the 96 entrants competing for the Sid Waddell Trophy and £2.5m in prize money.
