With about 3 months to the start of the World Chess Championship match between Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana, which is to take place from November 9–28 in London, United Kingdom, still many details have to be defined, but the venue at least is now known, according to what reported by Leon Watson: it is The College, a Victorian house with interconnecting rooms in downtown London. Of course, World Chess, the company organiser, could announce a change of venue at any time, so buy your London Oyster Card in advance.
Keep in mind, however, that that could well be a minor event in comparison with the 137th Varsity Chess Match between Cambridge and Oxford Universities, which is due to be held at the Royal Automobile Club in London, United Kingdom in the early days of March 2019. |
