The 2024 Premier League Darts, also known as the BetMGM Premier League Darts for sponsorship reasons, was a darts tournament, organised by the Professional Darts Corporation – the twentieth edition of the tournament. The event began on Thursday 1 February 2024, at the Utilita Arena in Cardiff, and finished with the play-offs, at The O₂ Arena in London on Thursday 23 May 2024.^[1][2]

Michael van Gerwen was the defending champion, after beating Gerwyn Price 11–5 in the 2023 final.^[3] However, he lost 10–5 to Luke Humphries in the semi-finals.

Luke Littler won his first major title and his first Premier League title on debut, beating Luke Humphries 11–7 in final.^[4] He became the youngest player to win a major PDC tournament. Littler also hit a nine-darter in the final.^[5]

On night 10, Gerwyn Price also hit a nine-dart leg during his semi-final match against Michael Smith.

Format[edit]

The 2024 Premier League Darts will remain an eight-person knockout bracket every night, with each of the seven matches played first to six legs. The players are guaranteed to meet each other once in the quarter-finals throughout the first seven weeks, and once in the quarter-finals in weeks 9–15, with weeks 8 and 16 being drawn based on the league standings at that point. Players receive two points per semi-final finish, three points per runner-up finish, and five points per final win.

Following the league phase, the top four players in the table contest the two knockout semi-finals with 1st playing 4th and 2nd playing 3rd.
