The Freestyle Grand Slam Weissenhaus is the first in a series of events aimed at promoting the chess variant also known as Chess960, 9LX or Fischer Random Chess. The event is financed by German entrepreneur Jan Henric Buettner and backed by former World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen.
The remaining events of the Freestyle Chess Grand Slam Tour are:
Paris April 8–15, New York July 17–24 New Delhi September 17–24 and Cape Town December 5–12.
The first event of the series takes place in a resort owned by Buettner in Wangels, Germany 7th to 14th February 2025. Players: Carlsen, Caruana, Nakamura, Gukesh, Abdusattorov, Firouzja, Aronian, Keymer, Fedoseev and Sindarov. A rapid round robin is followed by a classical KO later stage. I don't have the ability to display this chess variant, I will be able to provide daily updates of the PGN, most likely I'll actually do that live.
