Why?

Why?

People love chess. Lots of people. But it's nearly impossible for your average person , especially adults, to find a comfortable place to play chess with someone of their experience level. While Chess Place will offer the traditional features of a chess club (such as tournaments, classes and private lessons), its most unique feature will be the atmosphere it provides for casual chess all year round.

Partnering with Chess Place

If you’re a Manhattan based business (or not) and are interested in collaborating with Chess Place, we would love to hear from you. 

Chess Place is interested in spaces to rent by the day or hour as well as those that can be used alongside the main business of the location (for example a bar interested in hosting chess nights). 

 

Each business partnership will be uniquely designed based on the combined interests of both parties. The main priority of Chess Place is to provide to customers daily, casual chess settings in Manhattan. If the day ends in Y, Chess Place is offering casual chess somewhere in Manhattan. As long it doesn’t interfere with that, anything is possible! We’d love to hear your ideas, as untraditional as they may be. 


Chess Place will launch Summer 2025 with a monthly calendar of events. Now is the time to find your spot on it. Arrangements can be made for one-time events as well as weekly or bi-weekly. 

Chess Place and businesses that can facilitate live music

 Chess Place aims to create many unique chess and music atmospheres in its monthly events calendar. For example, you will ALWAYS find “live jazz and chess” somewhere on the monthly calendar. If you operate a business that has the ability to host live music, please reach out.
