international chess day is in a week!

last year we took over The Well in toronto with one long table and just let people play. every board was full in 5 minutes. turned into one of my favourite things we've done with @knightcapchess

doing it again this year.

the inaugural @knightcapchess Invitational powered by @TakeTakeTakeApp is this sunday!

over 200 people applied. spectator tickets sold out. afterparty sold out. extremely happy with the turnout.

it's exclusively equipped by Nymzo, we have them flying in from New York City for the weekend.

we're trying to see how much we can spice up the chess tournament world with this pilot so we can go even bigger in miami at the end of the year.

Welcome to our spotlight series, The Players.

This is about the people who make this community so special. How they think, how they play, why they show up. Because the game is only as good as the person sitting across from you.

First up: Mannie. Artist, lover, the Anthony Bourdain of chess.

“The Knight moves in an L, and to me, L’s are lessons.”

Follow along as we introduce the faces behind the board at Knightcap. These are just a few of the people you’ll meet at our events, and they’ll all be competing at the inaugural Knightcap Invitational Powered by Take Take Take on June 7th.

Grab your afterparty tickets while you still can!

Tonight! We're back with @newsystems_ ✨

[Taylor Harrison @taylorhrsn]

we've got a brand new look for Knightcap.

since day one, we've been all about taking one of the world's oldest games and putting it in rooms where it's least expected. as we've grown, our brand had to catch up.

the result is a refreshed visual identity that feels more consistent and more creative. after all… it is the year of the horse.
