A total of 20 players will compete in the inaugural World Seniors Darts Matchplay, with a total of £10,000 waiting for the winner.
This will be the first WSDT event since May's World Seniors Masters which was won by Canada's David Cameron.
The 52-year-old enjoyed an epic run which saw him take out Kevin Painter, world seniors champion Robert Thornton, Colin Monk, Richie Howson and the 16-time world champion Phil Taylor.
Cameron won't be in action this weekend, but there are a host of darting legends who will be looking to stamp their name into the history book by winning the first ever edition of the Seniors Matchplay.
Taylor, who won the PDC's World Matchplay crown a record 16 times, will be looking to replicate that form when he arrives at the Bonus Arena in Hull.
Thornton, who won the first ever seniors world title, will also be one of the top contenders as he eyes his second WSDT title.
Other names in action this weekend include Martin Adams, Kevin Painter, Terry Jenkins, Bob Anderson, Deta Hedman, Peter Manley, John Part and Lisa Ashton.
