Baltic Sea Darts Open prize money
The PDC has paid £755k across the four editions of the Baltic Sea Darts Open we hold, from 2023 to 2026. The 2026 pot was £230,000 between 48 players, the European Tour weekend in Kiel, on the Baltic coast, and Luke Woodhouse took £35,000 of it.
A darts player is paid once, for where the run ended, so every pound of a pot lands on exactly one player and the four pots below add up to the £755,000 the field has shared. Dave Chisnall has taken more out of the Baltic Sea Darts Open than anyone else: £43,000 from four appearances. Every one of the four was played at Merkur Ostseehalle, Kiel.

The pot, season by season
season running total
The prize fund has gone from £175,000 in 2023 to £230,000 in 2026, which is £55,000 more and 31% up. Winning it has moved with it, from £30,000 to £35,000, and the champion's share of the pot has gone from 17% to 15%. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches £755,000.
What each finishing place pays
The seven bands at the 2026 Baltic Sea Darts Open
Nothing here stacks. A player who lost in the semi-finals collected £10,000 and not that plus every band beneath it, which is why the seven bands come to £230,000 rather than to the £78,500 a ladder reading would put on the champion alone. The 2026 rate card has the players in each band and what the band paid out.
