The Theater at Madison Square Garden will serve as home to the top darts players in the country and the world for the third straight year. From June 27-28, the bet365 US Dart Masters will bring the Professional Darts Corporation’s (PDC) best to The Big Apple.
The field is headlined by a trio of Englishmen, including the event’s defending champion Rob Cross, 2025 PDC World Champion Luke Littler, and Premier League and World Masters winner Luke Humphries. The lineup also features several former champions and players atop the PDC’s Order of Merit, including Australia’s Damon Heta, Wales’ Gerwyn Price, the Netherlands’ Michael van Gerwen, and England’s Nathan Aspinall and Stephen Bunting.
The Darts Masters is the fourth event in the 2025 World Series of Darts. Bunting comes into New York hot, having won the Bahrain Masters in January and the Nordic Darts Masters in June. Cross also won the Dutch Darts Masters in January.
On the North American side, five of eight players are returning from the 2024 tournament, including Canada’s Matt Campbell and the United States’ Danny Lauby, Jules van Dogen, Adam Sevada, and Stowe Buntz. Joining the field are Canada’s Jim Long, the United States’ Leonard Gates, and Jason Brandon, who returns after missing last year’s event.
Sevada dominated the Championship Darts Circuit’s event in Niagara in early June to earn his spot in New York City. Gates earned his way into the field by winning April’s Cross-Border Darts Challenge, defeating Canada’s Jeff Smith in the finals. Brandon earned the final opening by winning the last qualifier in Cambridge, Ontario.
Now in its third year at The Theater, the event has developed a following. Last year drew 7,500 fans across the two-day event, showcasing the best of a popular European sport across the pond. The action kicks off on June 27 at 7:00 p.m. ET with a pair of sessions the next day at 1:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.
