Newly-crowned world champion Luke Humphries, defending champion Michael Van Gerwen and teenager star Luke Littler are among the players set to feature in the 2024 Premier League Darts.

The season will take place on Thursday nights from February 1st, as the biggest names in world darts compete for the prestigious title.

Belfast staged the opening night of the 2023 Premier League, although this year’s showcase will roll into Northern Ireland on Thursday 28th March, for the ninth night of the 17-week extravaganza.

Nicknamed the Nuke, Littler had the nation gripped to screens last night narrowly missing out on the world darts champion title.

Reigning Premier League champion Van Gerwen is chasing a record-extending eighth crown, having successfully defended his title last year.

Former world champions Michael Smith, Peter 'Snakebite' Wright and Rob Cross are also part of a stacked line-up.

Tickets to watch the darts live in Belfast's SSE Arena are available from Ticketmaster.ie
