2025 World Series of Darts

The 2025 World Series of Darts was a series of televised darts tournaments organised by the Professional Darts Corporation. Seven World Series events were held followed by one finals event, which like every year since 2021 took place in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

One new venue made its debut, with the Spark Arena in Auckland replacing the Globox Arena in Hamilton as the host venue for the New Zealand Masters.[1]
