The final takes place on Saturday night at Alexandra Palace, with the sport’s brightest young talents set to battle for the world title and a £1 million prize.
Eighteen year old Luke Littler returns to the oche aiming to defend his crown and reach a remarkable milestone by lifting the Sid Waddell Trophy for a second consecutive year.
It is Littler’s third straight World Championship final, an achievement that underlines his rapid rise and growing authority on the biggest stage.
Standing in his way is fellow rising star Gian van Veen, who has enjoyed a breakthrough tournament of his own. Nicknamed “The Giant”, Van Veen has matched Littler step for step at Ally Pally and now has the chance to claim his first senior world title.
Both players have looked outstanding throughout the competition, regularly producing ton plus averages and unleashing heavy scoring phases packed with maximums. Their consistency and composure have ensured that the final pairing feels fitting after nearly three weeks of high quality darts.
Littler booked his place in the final with a commanding semi final performance against Ryan Searle.
Despite dropping the opening set, the defending champion quickly asserted control and once again showed his ability to raise his level when it matters most.
Van Veen’s route to the final has been just as impressive. He edged a gripping semi final against two time world champion Gary Anderson, adding to earlier victories over top level opposition including Luke Humphries. Those wins underline the scale of the challenge he poses.
The final will be played over the best of 13 sets, a format that tests not only scoring power but nerve and stamina. Littler has been superb on the doubles throughout the tournament, a factor that could prove decisive if both players continue to average over 100.
Van Veen’s run means a victory for the Dutchman would be fully deserved, given the calibre of opponents he has overcome. However, Littler’s ability to elevate his game against elite competition suggests he may yet find another gear on the sport’s biggest night.
With two exceptional young players at the peak of their powers, the 2026 World Darts Championship final promises a compelling conclusion to an unforgettable tournament.
