Riyadh Season is adding another crowd-pleaser to its ever-expanding sports calendar.
Riyadh has spent the last few years turning itself into a headline-making hub for live sport and entertainment. From WWE spectaculars to major football fixtures, the capital’s calendar keeps getting bigger, bolder and more varied. Now, it is making room for something a little different as the Saudi Arabian Darts Masters arrives in the Kingdom for the very first time.
Taking place on 19 and 20 January 2026, the tournament is part of the 2026 World Series of Darts and will feature a roster of elite names in Riyadh. Held at SNB Arena in BLVD City, the event follows a knockout format, with quick-fire matches that make it easy to follow, even if you have never watched professional darts before. Expect big walk-ons, high-pressure finishes and the kind of tension that builds with every trip to the oche.
The Saudi Arabian Darts Masters features a 16-player line-up split between world-class professionals and Asia’s top-ranked talent. Leading the charge are Luke Littler, Luke Humphries, Michael van Gerwen, Gian van Veen, Stephen Bunting, Gerwyn Price, Nathan Aspinall and Danny Noppert, each known for sharp scoring and fearless finishing.
They will be joined by eight of Asia’s best players, selected from the 2025 PDC Asian Tour rankings, representing countries including the Philippines, Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong. Fans can also look out for familiar favourites such as Paul Lim, Alexis Toylo and Lourence Ilagan, who have built reputations for delivering big moments on major stages.
This debut signals Riyadh’s growing appetite for sport in all its forms. Whether you are a darts die-hard, a curious first-timer, or simply looking for a fresh night out during Riyadh Season, this one is worth adding to your diary.
