The 2013 event will be the 14th of the 15 nights of Premier League darts which will be played over a three-month tour of the UK and Ireland.

This year’s visit to Newcastle was also the 14th league night, with wins for Andy Hamilton and Simon Whitlock seeing them win places in the Play-Offs.

Whitlock threw a nine-darter in their semi-final clash before losing out to Taylor in the final as the world number one claimed the title for a sixth time.
