PDC darts tournaments in October: Headlined by World Grand Prix and European Championship image

PDC

The dart calendar will rapidly pick up after an already exciting month of September.

September featured several action-packed Euro Tour events, and was highlighted by an entertaining World Series of Darts Finals event.

It won't slow down going into October, with many majors to get in before the year is up.

PDC tournaments: October

Here are the tournaments in October.

Players Championship 29 & 30

These will be two of the six PC events that take place in October.

They'll take place in Leicester on Oct. 1 (PC 29) and Oct. 2(PC 30).

World Grand Prix

The World Grand Prix is considered one of the biggest majors each year.

It has a double-in, double-out format, which is something we don't typically see in the PDC at any other point in the year. It's also played in a 'set format', which is only seen at the World Championship and at the World Masters.

The tournament will span from Oct. 6 to Oct. 12, with £120,000 on the line for the winner.

They'll take place in Wigan on Oct. 14 (PC 31) and Oct. 15 (PC 32).

German Darts Championship

This will be the final Euro Tour event of the year, giving players one more chance to change their seeding before the European Championship at the end of the month.

The German Darts Championship will start on Oct. 17 and will end on Oct. 19.

European Championship

This European Championship is one of the more significant ranked events on the calendar.

This tournament also has a prize total of £120,000, which can be won by wildcards, like we saw last year with Ritchie Edhouse coming away victorious.

It will start on Oct. 23 and end on Oct. 26.

Players Championship 33 & 34

These will be the fifth and final of six PC events that take place in October.

They'll take place in Wigan on Oct. 29 (PC 33) and Oct. 30 (PC 34).
