Aberdeen’s P&J Live arena is to once again play host to the Cazoo Premier League Darts next year.

The state-of-the-art Granite City venue will welcome some of the world’s best arrow-throwers on Thursday May 18.

The 2023 Premier League gets under way in Belfast on February 2 and will retain the same format as last year with subsequent Thursday night showdowns taking place in Cardiff, Glasgow, Dublin, Exeter, Liverpool, Nottingham, Newcastle, Berlin, Birmingham, Brighton, Rotterdam, Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield – before Aberdeen hosts the final night before the play-offs.

Aberdeen will be the final chance for the eight players taking part in next year’s Premier League to secure a place in the top-four ahead of the field being whittled down for the play-offs at London’s O2.

Louise Stewart, interim managing director at P&J Live, said: “The darts is always a firm favourite in our calendar of events here in Aberdeen – an electric atmosphere with capacity crowds.

“We love to see fans getting behind the players and dressing up in their weird and wonderful costumes and we’re in no doubt this year will be just as exciting.

“Be warned – tables will sell quickly. Don’t miss out!”
