Phil 'the Power' Taylor will be back at Rileys Sports Bar in Wolverhampton as the star attraction of a darts exhibition for the second year in a row.

Seven months on from his last visit, Taylor will be at the venue he opened in 2009 for an Easter Bank Holiday Monday event on May 7.

The 15-time world champion will play a leg against up to eight challengers, with a number of players to be drawn on the night.

The remaining spots will be filled by the winners of darts competitions at Rileys leading up to the date.

Taylor will also meet, greet and sign autographs for fans on what promises to be an action-packed function for the audience.

'The Power' will be match fit from the PDC Premier League and UK Open qualifiers, which are both held in Birmingham days before.

He said: "These roadshows are a great chance for me to meet darts fans I wouldn't get a chance to meet anywhere else.

"Darts has always been a sociable sport, so it's great to be able to have a good laugh with people and play the game we all love.

"It's like playing on the big stage!"

Tickets to meet the darts legend are just £5, the same as last year, and are available now.

They can be purchased from the club or by calling 01902 310 521.
