The 2016 Dutch Darts Masters was the first of ten European Tour events on the 2016 PDC Pro Tour. The tournament took place at the Evenementenhal, Venray, Netherlands, between 12–14 February. It featured a field of 48 players and £115,000 in prize money, with £25,000 going to the winner.

Michael van Gerwen was the defending champion, having beaten Justin Pipe 6–0 in the final of the previous edition, and he retained his title by defeating Daryl Gurney 6–2 in the final.

This is how the prize money is divided:

The top 16 players from the PDC ProTour Order of Merit on 15 January automatically qualified for the event and were seeded in the second round.

The remaining 32 places went to players from three qualifying events - 20 from the UK Qualifier (held in Wigan on 17 January), eight from the European Qualifier and four from the Home Nation Qualifier (both held on 23 January).

The following players took part in the tournament:
