Lisbon Chess

All chess places in the Lisbon area

This page shows every entry we hold: 127 in all, of which 122 are active or waiting for a fresh trace of chess. Each name leads to a card with the facts, the sources behind them and the dates we read those sources.

Closed and moved places are kept in a separate section at the end of the page, with what happened to them.

Marks: ✓ chess confirmed on that date · ? not confirmed, newest trace from that date · → with a date: announced for that date · → moved: chess moved elsewhere · × ended: the venue closed.

Where to play

Places where, by their sources, someone who is not a member can sit down for a game. Session times change, so open the card before you go.

Clubs

Chess clubs across the area, from open club nights to members-only societies. Each card says what its sources state about guests and fees.

Recurring tournaments

Events held again and again, each shown with the newest edition we could date. The organiser's own page carries the next date.

Lessons and coaching

Academies, clubs that teach and coaches with a public offer. A price appears only where the provider publishes one.

Groups and meetups

Associations, meetups and circles that gather around chess, some with a room of their own and some that move from place to place.

Chess shops

Shops where a source says chess sets, clocks or books are on sale.

Members-only and school programmes

Chess you cannot simply walk into: clubs for members and programmes run inside schools for their pupils. Listed so the picture is complete.

Closed or moved

Places where the chess has ended or gone elsewhere, kept with the reason and the date so that old links still make sense.
