PDC Development Tour 2026 schedule and results

The Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) Development Tour for 2026 comprises 24 events held across five venues, primarily in Leicester and Milton Keynes in the United Kingdom and Hildesheim in Germany. The tour is open to players aged 16‑23 who are not ranked in the top 64 of the PDC Order of Merit, offering a pathway to the ProTour and World Darts Championship.

The season’s Order of Merit is based on prize‑money earnings. Polish youngster Sebastian Bialecki leads the rankings, while Adam Gawlas secured the final victory of Development Tour 15, defeating Bialecki 9‑4 in the final. Other notable performers include Jurjen van der Velde, Cam Crabtree, and Luke Littler, who have all featured prominently in various events throughout the year.

All tournaments are played behind closed doors, with no spectators, and prize money contributes to qualification for major PDC events such as the World Darts Championship and the Grand Slam of Darts.
