Finals: best of 13 (men's) best of 3 (women's) ENG Mervyn King SCO Paul Hanvidge

The 2006 BDO World Darts Championship (known for sponsorship reasons as the 2006 Lakeside World Professional Darts Championship) was held from 7 to 15 January 2006 at the Lakeside Country Club in Frimley Green, Surrey. Defending champion Raymond van Barneveld was aiming to win a fifth BDO world title, equalling the record set by Eric Bristow. However, he was beaten 7–5 in the final by Dutch qualifier Jelle Klaasen; the final was the first and only World Darts Championship final to not feature a British player. Klaasen became the youngest World Champion at age 21 and became the first qualifier to win the World Championship since Keith Deller in 1983, who became the youngest World Champion himself, aged 23. This would eventually be Van Barneveld's last appearance at the BDO World Championships as he would switch to the rival Professional Darts Corporation the next month.

It was the only BDO Men's World Championship that had no representative from Wales.

The semi-finals were also extended to best of 11 sets and the final a best of 13 set affair.

The prize money was £209,000 for the men's event and £11,000 for the women's event.
