The 2026 Premier League is the 22nd season of the showpiece event [Getty Images] The 2026 Premier League darts finalists have been confirmed with a night of the regular season to spare. Reigning world champion Luke Littler and 2021 Premier League winner Jonny Clayton had already secured their place at The O2 on 28 May with several nights to spare. They will be joined by Gerwyn Price and defending champion Luke Humphries, who both confirmed their place at the London event by reaching the final of night 15 in Birmingham.
It means seven-time winner Michael van Gerwen, Stephen Bunting and debutants Gian van Veen and Josh Rock have all been eliminated from play-off contention. But a number of final table positions are still to be determined. BBC Sport looks at what's at stake for players already eliminated from the play-off race, and for those heading to finals night later this month.

The winner of night 16 in Sheffield, as has been the case throughout the course of the league phase, will bank a bonus of £10,000.
And once the table is finalised after next week's action, we'll have a clearer picture of how much certain players can and will earn. Those in the bottom four are fighting it out for the following sums: Fifth: £95,000 Sixth: £90,000 Seventh: £85,000 Eighth: £80,000 But the prize money is significantly higher for the four players who will compete at finals night.
