# 2023 Nordic Darts Masters

The 2023 Viaplay Nordic Darts Masters was the third staging of the Nordic Darts Masters tournament by the Professional Darts Corporation, and the second entry in the 2023 World Series of Darts. The tournament featured 16 players (eight 'elite' PDC players and eight regional qualifiers) and was held at the Forum Copenhagen in Copenhagen, Denmark on 20–21 January 2023.
Dimitri Van den Bergh was the defending champion, after defeating Gary Anderson 11–5 in the 2022 final. However, he lost to Gerwyn Price in the quarter-finals. Price then lost to Peter Wright in the final, with Wright winning his fourth World Series title, his first since 2019, when he won the German Darts Masters.
