Darts Over the Arch

Darts Over the Arch is an annual dart tournament held in St. Louis, Missouri, celebrating the local LGBTQIA+ community and dart enthusiasts. The event typically takes place over a weekend in October, featuring multiple tournaments, including blind draw events on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights, as well as Sunday afternoon.

The tournament format has evolved over the years.
