You have several legal ways to watch PDC darts in the US. FanDuel TV Extra carries a large part of the calendar for free, while PDCTV offers the broadest direct subscription.
ESPN Unlimited covers five leading PDC events across ESPN2 and ESPN+, Peacock streams selected tournaments, and DAZN supplies a free PDC Darts channel with scheduled programming.
The complication is that U.S. rights are divided by tournament and sometimes by session. An event listed on ESPN could place early rounds on ESPN+ and a final on ESPN2.
Peacock might carry only certain nights, while FanDuel TV Extra follows a fixed channel schedule. PDCTV reaches more of the calendar, though territorial restrictions still depend on the event.
Free options to watch PDC darts
These free services provide meaningful PDC coverage without a paid television package.
1. FanDuel TV Extra
- Device support: Web playback through FanDuel, FanDuel TV+ apps for connected televisions, and carriage through Pluto TV, The Roku Channel, Xumo Play, and Plex.
FanDuel TV Extra is the main free destination for live PDC darts in the US. It has coverage for the Premier League, UK Open, European Tour, World Cup of Darts, World Series events, and the US Darts Masters. The channel has therefore carried far more than occasional exhibition matches.
You could open FanDuel TV Extra through FanDuel’s free television service or find the same FAST channel inside several free streaming apps.
A FanDuel login gives you direct browser access, while the third-party channel hosts provide another route when you would rather watch through an existing television app.
Pros:
- It carries substantial live PDC coverage without a monthly charge.
- Several FAST platforms provide access outside the FanDuel website.
- Major events, European Tour stops, and World Series tournaments have appeared on the U.S. schedule.
- No cable package is required.
Cons:
- The fixed channel feed gives you little control over start times or match selection.
- Replays and a personal DVR are not guaranteed.
- Other live sports share the channel schedule.
2. DAZN Free
- Device support: Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari browsers; smart-TV apps; PlayStation and Xbox systems; phones, tablets, and streaming players.
DAZN offers a free PDC Darts linear channel in the US. You only need a free account, and registration requires an email address rather than a paid DAZN plan.
The channel gives you another place to find darts programming between major tournament sessions.
Its PDC page includes live and on-demand listings, replays, and a continuous darts feed. However, the free channel should not be treated as the confirmed home of every current tournament.
PDC’s 2026 event notices often named FanDuel, Peacock, ESPN, or PDCTV for U.S. live coverage, while paid DAZN rights were listed for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
Pros:
- A free account provides access without payment details for the PDC channel.
- The channel mixes scheduled darts programming with replay and on-demand entries.
- DAZN supports browsers, televisions, mobile hardware, and game consoles.
- It provides useful coverage between events carried elsewhere.
Cons:
- The free channel does not replace every event-specific U.S. broadcaster.
- A scheduled linear feed offers less control than a full tournament archive.
- Live availability could differ from one PDC event to the next.
Paid options to watch PDC darts
These subscriptions provide the best tournament access, more reliable replays, or coverage of events split away from free television.
1. PDCTV
- Starting price (Per month): $15.99
- Device support: PDC website and mobile app, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, with dedicated smart-TV support continuing to expand.
PDCTV is the most complete direct subscription for following the PDC calendar from the US. Official 2026 listings made PDCTV available in the US for the Premier League, European Tour, World Cup of Darts, World Matchplay, and World Championship.
The service becomes especially useful during the Players Championship and other multi-board events. PDCTV has streamed several boards at once rather than limiting you to one television stage.
Pros:
- Multi-board coverage adds matches that television broadcasts often omit.
- Replays and archive programming remain available between live sessions.
- The monthly plan costs less than a full live-TV bundle.
- Direct PDC coverage reduces the need to track several television networks.
Cons:
- Event-specific territorial restrictions still apply.
- Television app support is less extensive than on larger streaming platforms.
2. ESPN Unlimited
- Starting price (Per month): $29.99
- Device support: ESPN app and ESPN.com across connected televisions, computers, phones, tablets, and compatible game consoles.
ESPN Unlimited has five major events in the US. These are the US Darts Masters, World Matchplay, and World Grand Prix. It also has Grand Slam of Darts and World Darts Championship.
Coverage is spread across ESPN2 and ESPN+, giving these tournaments a mix of traditional television and direct streaming.
The cheaper ESPN Select plan reaches ESPN+ programming but not the ESPN2 feed. A live-TV service carrying ESPN2 also falls short whenever a PDC session is exclusive to ESPN+.
Pros:
- ESPN Unlimited includes both ESPN2 and ESPN+ sessions.
- Replays appear in the ESPN app after live coverage.
- The Disney and Hulu bundle adds broader entertainment for a small price increase.
- ESPN2 exposure gives selected finals a familiar live television home.
Cons:
- The subscription does not cover the full PDC calendar.
- ESPN Select alone misses any session placed on ESPN2.
3. Peacock
- Starting price (Per month): $10.99
- Device support: Browser playback, Hisense and LG televisions, Xumo hardware, PlayStation and Xbox, streaming boxes, and mobile apps.
Here, you get selected PDC tournaments rather than the whole season. During 2026, Peacock has the Premier League from Night Four onward and the World Cup of Darts.
The 2025/26 World Darts Championship also placed evening sessions from December 11 through December 19 on Peacock.
The Premium plan is enough for included live sports, so you do not need Premium Plus for PDC coverage.
Premium Plus costs $16.99 per month and reduces advertising across much of Peacock’s on-demand catalog, but live channels and sports still include commercial breaks.
Pros:
- The $10.99 Premium plan includes eligible live PDC events.
- Premier League Darts and the World Cup have received confirmed U.S. coverage.
- The same subscription includes NBC sports, films, series, and other live events.
- Its app reaches televisions, browsers, consoles, and mobile devices.
Cons:
- Premium includes advertisements, while Premium Plus does not remove every live-sports break.
- Event and session availability requires a fresh check before each tournament.
4. Hulu + Live TV
- Starting price (Per month): $89.99
- Device support: Mac and PC browsers, Nintendo Switch, Echo Show, selected LG and Samsung televisions, mobile apps, streaming sticks, and Xbox systems.
Hulu + Live TV provides another complete route to ESPN’s five-event PDC package. Your plan includes ESPN2 in the live channel guide and access to the full ESPN Unlimited experience through the ESPN app.
That combination covers sessions placed on ESPN+ as well as rounds or finals assigned to ESPN2.
The service costs far more than ESPN Unlimited by itself, but the price includes over 100 live channels, Hulu’s on-demand library, Disney+, and ESPN access
Pros:
- ESPN2 and full ESPN Unlimited access cover both sides of ESPN’s PDC schedule.
- Unlimited DVR supports ESPN2 sessions carried through Hulu’s channel guide.
- Disney+, Hulu, and more than 100 live channels are included.
- The package suits a household replacing a cable subscription.
Cons:
- The $89.99 monthly price is excessive for darts alone.
- ESPN+ sessions rely on the separate ESPN app rather than Hulu’s standard DVR.
