The Exhibition
Space
With so much of the darting World no focussed
on exhibitions, and with their ability to get
fans to live darts at cheaper rates than the
professional circuit, we decided it was time
that we at UK Darts jumped on the bandwagon.
The pair took the time out to talk to almost everyone
in the venue on the night and were highly patient
when it came to photographs and autographs. I must
therefore recommend that you get yourself off and
see either of these two if the opportunity presents

and on the mic after the event.
exhibition with Eric Bristow and Keith Deller
planned in my hometown of Ormskirk, Lancashire
that presented me with the perfect opportunity to
attend, review and learn more about exhibitions.
The night turned out to be a great success, indeed
the pair played in front of a packed out venue that
holds nearly 300, and they could in all honesty
probably filled and even larger venue than that. Both
men were highly entertaining both on the dartboard
itself.
Of course I have been to exhibitions before, but not
on this scale and not for a long time and I must say
that in many ways I prefered the relaxed atmosphere
generated, after all without money and rankings on
the matches players can relax. If therefore you get
chance to get over to an exhibition anytime soon
then you should.
We have put together a calendar of upcoming events
which we feel will be worth watching out for, and
if you are going then why not get your picture with
a player and send it over to us. We will always be
happy to publish the best of them and hear what you
have to say about any and all exhibition darts.
