Auckland Chess Weekend September 2024 is part of a series of 5 over the board chess tournaments with 6 rounds played over 2 days on a weekend.
The final event for this year will take place on 7-8th September at the Auckland Chess Centre, 17 Cromwell Street, Mt Eden, Auckland, New Zealand.
Auckland Chess Centre (ACC) is having a series of OTB tournaments to be run throughout 2024, the Auckland Chess Weekends (ACW). These tournaments will fill the gaps between months with long weekends when big open tournaments are traditionally run.
ACW events are played in a slightly faster time control of 60 minutes plus 30 seconds increment, which is still considered classical by FIDE.
Main purpose of the Auckland Chess Weekends is to provide chess players more opportunities to play OTB chess games. Players who play in every tournament in ACW 2024 series would play up to 30 OTB chess games.
Players must be rated below 2400 standard FIDE or unrated.
