How we check our facts
An independent guide should make it easy to see what is confirmed, what may change and where an answer came from.
Last reviewed: 8 November 2026.
Off to the Darts is published by Peter Taylor trading as Does Your Duck Quack?, and it is independent of the PDC, the WDF and every venue.
Official sources first
We use the organiser and venue for dates, sessions, tickets, entry and accessibility.
Transport operators supply journey information; hotels and pubs supply their own room, menu and opening details.
Where an original result is reproduced by a darts association, we identify that route. Secondary checks are labelled and do not silently become official confirmation.
How we use AI tools
We use AI tools to help draft and organise pages and to check them against the sources we cite.
Every fact on the site comes from a named official or reliable source, shown with the date we checked it in each section's "Sources and checked date" note.
We use these tools because the site keeps hundreds of venue and event details current across 19 venues, and they help us re-check them quickly.
They never replace a source, and we don't claim to have visited venues or attended events.
A date beside the detail
Visitor sections link their source and show a checked date. A check confirms what the source published at that time; it does not guarantee future availability.
We distinguish first-match times from doors, estimates from promised finishes, and ordinary opening hours from event-night arrangements.
Prices with a basis
We identify the season, seat category and whether a charge is per person or per order. Old prices and rules retain their year.
Hotel prices need a specific date, room, occupancy and cancellation basis.
When no live quote has been obtained we provide the direct booking route instead of inventing a “from” price.
Honest gaps
If a minimum age, supervision ratio, entry time or access route has not been published, we say so. We do not fill the gap with a different event’s rules.
Your ticket, organiser notices and venue staff take precedence. Contact the venue about individual access requirements before spending money.
Commercial links
Our recommendations are based on the visit, including budget options. Some links on this site are affiliate links.
If you book a hotel through Booking.com after following one of our links, we may earn a commission through the CJ affiliate network, at no extra cost to you.
It never changes which hotels or options we include, and these links are marked. Read our affiliate disclosure.
Reserved placements and ordinary provider links are described in the affiliate disclosure.
Any commission is disclosed; it will not decide which session or hotel we recommend. We do not cover betting.
Corrections
Email webmaster@offtothedarts.co.uk with the page URL, the detail and a reliable source.
Significant factual corrections will be recorded here with their date and the amended detail. No correction history is claimed for earlier drafts.

Our limits
We do not sell tickets, operate venues or provide a live disruption service.
Take booking problems to the ticket seller and urgent help to venue staff or the appropriate emergency service.
A link is a route to more information, not a promise about every service offered by that provider.
Sources, checks and content dates
Official organiser, venue, seller, transport and hotel sources support the practical information. A source fold identifies the source and the detail checked.
Secondary reporting is described as reported, and fan material is a lead rather than confirmation of a current admission rule.
A checked date belongs to the information actually read from the named source.
A page update records a content change; rebuilding or publishing the same text does not establish a fresh fact check.
Where current detail is unavailable, the guide leaves out the number or directs the reader to the official booking route.
