The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Do Less and Play Chess transforms downtown into a welcoming hub for players of all ages and skill levels. This isn’t about ratings or rankings, it’s about connection, curiosity, and joy. Expect fun chess variants, spontaneous matches, and a laid-back vibe that invites everyone to play, learn, or simply enjoy the scene.

Whether you’re a lifelong player or just chess-curious, come be part of something playful and public in the heart of the city.
