WDF most important tournaments are the WDF World Darts Championship, WDF World Masters or WDF World Cup.

2021 is the first year in which the calendar will be under WDF-sole management after the liquidation of BDO.[1]

Due to COVID-19-related restrictions and lockdowns in many countries, calendar has been disrupted by the cancelling or postponing of several tournaments. WDF resumed their darts calendar in June 2021.
