The PDC has announced the qualifying series for the 2027 UK Open. Sixteen amateur players will have the chance to qualify for the major televised tournament, which takes place at Butlin's Minehead Resort from 5 to 7 March. The qualifiers will be held at venues across the United Kingdom and Ireland.

All sixteen amateur spots will be awarded through venues affiliated with the PDC In The Community initiative. Each venue will first host preliminary rounds, followed by a decisive qualifying event to determine who earns a place in the UK Open.

Thirteen venues in England have been selected, with each able to send one amateur player to the tournament. They include Somercotes Snooker Club in Alfreton and Enderby & District Social Club.

Amateur players in Scotland, Ireland and Wales will also have the opportunity to qualify. Preliminary rounds will take place at several venues in Scotland, before the decisive qualifying day at the Imperial Bar in Inverness.

The final for Irish players will be held at Christy's Bar in Kerry. In Wales, Kings Sports Bar in Newport has been selected as a qualifying venue. Four preliminary rounds will be followed by a decisive final event.

The first preliminary rounds are scheduled for 7 November. The Portland Social Club is among the venues launching its qualifying campaign that day. All sixteen amateurs who qualify through the series must be confirmed by 7 February 2027.
