The 2024 Flanders Darts Trophy was the tenth of thirteen PDC European Tour events on the 2024 PDC Pro Tour. The tournament took place at the Antwerp XPO, Antwerp, Belgium from 6 to 8 September 2024. It featured a field of 48 players and £175,000 in prize money, with £30,000 going to the winner.
This was the first edition of the event, marking the first European Tour event in Antwerp. With the Belgian Darts Open taking place in Wieze earlier in 2024, this was the first time multiple European Tour events have taken place in Belgium in the same year.
Dave Chisnall won the title in his 100th European Tour event, beating Ricardo Pietreczko 8–6 in the final.[1][2]

[edit]The prize fund remained at £175,000, with £30,000 to the winner:[3]

- Pre-qualified players from the Orders of Merit who lose in their first match of the event shall not be credited with prize money on any Order of Merit. A player who qualifies as a qualifier, but later becomes a seed due to the withdrawal of one or more other players shall be credited with their prize money on all Orders of Merit regardless of how far they progress in the event.[4][5]
Qualification and format
[edit]A massive overhaul in the qualification for the 2024 European Tour events was announced on 7 January.[6][7]
For the first time, both the PDC Order of Merit and the PDC ProTour Order of Merit rankings were used to determine 32 of the 48 entrants for the event.
The top 16 on the PDC Order of Merit qualified, along with the highest 16 ranked players on the PDC ProTour Order of Merit (after the PDC Order of Merit players were removed). From those 32 players, the 16 highest ranked players on the PDC ProTour Order of Merit were seeded for the event.
The seedings were confirmed on 7 June.[8]
The remaining 16 places went to players from four qualifying events – 10 from the Tour Card Holder Qualifier (held on 13 June), four from the Host Nation Qualifier (to be held on 5 September), one from the Nordic & Baltic Associate Member Qualifier (held on 1 June), and one from the East European Associate Member Qualifier (held on 1 June).
Gary Anderson and Nathan Aspinall withdrew and were replaced by Mike De Decker and Scott Williams. Ryan Joyce moved up to become a seed.[9]
