How to watch World Cup of Darts live online, stream and on TV guide for the UK, USA and Australia

The 2026 World Cup of Darts promises another fiercely competitive battle as 40 nations descend on Frankfurt in pursuit of international glory.

The 16th edition of the prestigious team event takes place at the Eissporthalle from June 11-14, with the world’s top stars teaming up to represent their countries on one of darts’ biggest stages.

Fans in the UK can watch every match live on Sky Sports, while international coverage will be provided by broadcasters including DAZN, Viaplay and VTM. The tournament will also be available worldwide on PDCTV, excluding the UK, Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Defending champions Northern Ireland return looking to retain the title they won in dramatic fashion last year after defeating Wales in a thrilling final. Josh Rock and Daryl Gurney once again join forces and will be determined to recreate their memorable triumph.

Wales have undergone a significant change, with Gerwyn Price absent from this year’s competition. Jonny Clayton remains the team’s talisman and will be partnered by Rhys Griffin.

Scotland will also field a new-look pairing. Cameron Menzies has replaced Peter Wright and will make his World Cup debut alongside two-time world champion Gary Anderson.

England head into the tournament as favourites despite a disappointing campaign in 2025. World No.1 Luke Humphries and reigning world champion Luke Littler suffered a shock first-round exit at the hands of hosts Germany last year and will be eager to make amends.

The Netherlands boast one of the strongest teams in the field, with Michael van Gerwen partnering rising star Gian van Veen for the first time. Belgium will rely on the experienced duo of Mike De Decker and Dimitri Van den Bergh, while home hopes rest largely on Martin Schindler and Ricardo Pietreczko.

The Republic of Ireland will be represented by Mickey Mansell and William O’Connor, while 2022 champions Australia feature Damon Heta alongside debutant Adam Leek.

Among the other teams capable of making deep runs are Austria’s Mensur Suljović and Rusty-Jake Rodriguez, Poland’s Krzysztof Ratajski and Sebastian Białecki, and Czech Republic duo Karel Sedláček and Adam Gawlas.
