World Championship to be sponsored by Halo
www.snookerisland.comHalo remains the headline sponsor for the World Snooker Championship in 2026, with Halo expanding its role to also engage with the World Darts Championship as a partner. The partnership marks Halo’s ongoing presence as a non-gambling tech-focused sponsor for snooker’s flagship event, continuing the shift away from gambling-brand sponsors.[1][5]

- The deal also extends Halo’s sponsorship footprint to the World Darts Championship for 2026–27, reflecting Halo’s broader involvement in both sports.[1]
- Halo previously held the title partnership in 2025 and has positioned itself as a technology partner delivering data and fan experiences to digital channels.[3][8]
