Well-known chess writer and media profile Peter Doggers will keep us informed on all what is going on during this year’s tournament. He will take photos, make interviews and make content available to people all over the world via a number of channels!

Please note that there was a mistake in the previous post. You do NOT need a ticket to follow the commentators on site (the commentator room is outside the ticket perimeter.)

The commentators this year will be GM Stellan Brynell and GM Erwin l’Ami (one of last year’s participants. You will be able to follow them online, but also live at the venue (please note that the commentator area is open to the public, you do need a ticket for this).
