Norway Chess in Stavanger

In 2013, it became a reality when the world's best players took over Stavanger. They have done so every year since then. Today, it's safe to say that Norway Chess has managed to become one of the world's most recognised and prestigious chess tournaments. Every year, the chess elite meet in Stavanger to take part in this action-packed tournament, and for many players it is perhaps the most attractive tournament they attend. Through Norway Chess, Stavanger has become one of the world's chess capitals.
