The 2024 PDC World Cup of Darts, known as the 2024 BetVictor World Cup of Darts for sponsorship reasons, was the fourteenth edition of the PDC World Cup of Darts. It took place from 27 to 30 June 2024 at the Eissporthalle in Frankfurt, Germany.

Wales were the defending champions, after Jonny Clayton and Gerwyn Price defeated the Scotland team, consisting of Peter Wright and Gary Anderson, 10–2 in the 2023 final.[1] They were represented by Clayton and Jim Williams, and were eliminated in the second round, losing 6–8 to Croatia.

England (represented by Luke Humphries and Michael Smith) won their record-breaking fifth World Cup, defeating Austria 10–6 in the final.[2]

The new format introduced in the 2023 tournament remained, with forty teams taking part. The top four teams were seeded to the second round, with the other 36 competing in a group stage of 12 groups of three, with one qualifying from each group.[3]

In this format, all rounds were a single match played in doubles format:

  • Group stage: Best of seven legs
  • Second round, quarter and semi-finals: Best of fifteen legs
  • Final: Best of nineteen legs
