Why can’t I get tickets to some of the events in Milton Keynes?
Despite many PDC events coming to Arena MK in 2025, all of them are closed to the public; these events, also known as floor tournaments, are primarily for PDC Tour Card holders and PDPA Associate Members.
The main aim is to provide regular competitive play for professional players without the added pressure and logistics of a large audience and television production. This allows players, especially newer cardholders, to hone their skills in a professional environment.
In essence, these events are specifically for players trying to qualify for larger European Tour events or other televised tournaments. They are not intended for general public attendance with the emphasis purely on the qualification process.
However, several select events are due to be screened on PDCTV; for more information on how to sign up for free to avoid missing any of the action, you can visit the PDCTV’s official page.
