13/07/2023 – Sea cual fuese la idea de un acontecimiento ajedrecístico tradicional, probablemente no se parezca en nada a lo que es la fiesta "ChessFest", la gran fiesta del ajedrez en la Plaza de Trafalgar, en Londres. Mientras que en la mayoría de los torneos la acción se desarrolla a puerta cerrada, accesible sólo a entendidos y conocedores del juego, la ChessFest da la vuelta a todo eso. Se trata de que el ajedrez se "celebre y festeje" a lo grande, al aire libre, y con la vista del público masivo. La próxima fiesta dle ajedrez se llevará a cabo el próximo domingo. Pero hemos recopilado las impresiones de las ediciones anteriores para hacerles la boca agua. Por si por casualidad esté en Londres el domingo próximo, 16 de julio de 2023. | Foto: Andrew Moss
