WARRINGTON’S Luke Littler stunned locals with a surprise Pub Darts Night, delivering a once-in-a-lifetime evening for local pub-goers.
The surprise appearance at The Feathers Inn in Lichfield marked the winning moment of a KP Nuts competition launched last year in partnership with Luke Littler, giving one pub the chance to host the PDC Darts World Champion for an exclusive night of darts with their local community. The Feathers Inn, a family-run pub at the heart of Lichfield, was randomly selected as the winner, beating hundreds of entries from across the country.
Known for its strong community spirit, live music nights, and its very own darts team, The Feathers Inn provided the perfect backdrop for KP Nuts’ focus on celebrating the unique role pubs play in both community and culture.
On the night, Luke joined locals at the oche, played matches with the pub’s darts team and chatted with regulars – creating memories that will be talked about for years to come.
The PDC Darts World Champion said, “Nights like this are what it’s all about. The atmosphere was unreal – everyone was so welcoming and up for a game. KP Nuts have been brilliant at helping bring moments like this to life, and I loved meeting the locals and throwing a few darts with them!”
Tracey and Mike Kingston, owners of The Feathers Inn, commented: “The pub simply erupted when Luke walked through the door. We have never seen our regulars look more stunned – the reaction from everyone was amazing! We’re delighted to have been randomly selected by KP Nuts and can’t thank them enough for creating a moment we will never forget.”
After taking on Luke Littler, Andy Matthews from The Feathers Inn darts team added: “I can’t believe we’ve just played against Luke ‘The Nuke’ Littler. We’re so grateful to KP Nuts and Luke for putting this event on for us. For a little darts team in Lichfield to win this is unbelievable.
“The world champion walking into our local – everyone’s faces were a picture. It’s not something you get to do every day!”
The event is part of KP Nuts’ wider commitment to celebrating the places where darts culture thrives, creating shared experiences that bring people together and championing the role of pubs at the heart of local communities.
Kevin McNair, Marketing Director at KP Snacks, said:“At KP Nuts, we’re passionate about creating excitement and unforgettable moments, and there’s no better place for that than a pub. Partnering with Luke Littler has allowed us to celebrate darts at its grassroots level and reward the communities that live and breathe the sport. Seeing the reaction at The Feathers Inn was exactly what this competition was all about.”
With laughter, cheers and the unmistakable sound of darts hitting the board, the surprise visit delivered a perfect blend of sport, community and celebration – proving once again that KP Nuts are helping bring darts and pubs together in truly memorable ways.
