The world number one dropped just two legs in his first five matches before clinching another title with 6-4 wins against Simon Whitlock and Norris.
Van Gerwen's glory charge began with successive 6-0 victories over Matt Padgett and Joe Murnan, followed by a 6-1 triumph against Arron Monk.
He then defeated fellow Dutchman Benito van de Pas with another whitewash victory to reach the quarter-finals, where he raced to a 6-1 success against Adrian Lewis, who won Friday's tournament.
Van Gerwen then saw off Australia's Whitlock 6-4 to move into the final against Norris, which he won by the same two-leg margin to pick up the £10,000 first prize.
Norris' run to his second PDC ranking final started with a 6-5 victory against Prakash Jiwa, followed by a 6-4 success over South Africa's Devon Petersen.
He then edged out former Lakeside Champion Stephen Bunting 6-5 to reach the last 32, where he condemned Holland's Jeffrey de Graaf to a 6-0 whitewash.
Norris, who reached the quarter-finals in his William Hill World Championship debut last month, defeated Lee Evans 6-2 to reach the last eight in Wigan.
There, he saw off Belgian ace Kim Huybrechts with a 6-3 win before beating Welshman Jamie Lewis in a last-leg decider to set up a final showdown with van Gerwen.
24-year-old Lewis had enjoyed victories against Chris Dobey, Tony Newell, Steve Beaton, Matt Clark and Kyle Anderson to reach the semi-finals.
Whitlock's run to the last four included victories against Dave Chinsall and Dutch youngster Berry van Peer, who reached his first PDC ProTour quarter-final in only his second tournament since gaining a Tour Card.
After defeating Paul Milford and Joe Cullen, two-time World Champion Adrian Lewis met Phil Taylor in a repeat of Friday's final, with Lewis again getting the better of his fellow Stoke ace 6-2.
He followed that up with a 6-3 victory against Mervyn King before running into an inspired van Gerwen.
Sunday will see the third of six UK Open Qualifiers, with each holding a £60,000 prize fund.
