LCC Schools’ Festival

The 2025 LCC Schools’ Festival will welcome 800 children from the CSC Schools’ Programme to the Emirates Stadium for a day of fun chess activities. These include:

• chess lessons from CSC tutors

• simultaneous games against chess masters

• the chance to meet and possibly play a game against a chess grandmaster

• tournaments against their peers from across the country.

Invitations will be sent to schools in the CSC Schools’ Programme soon. 

Through this programme, CSC runs weekly curriculum lessons and chess clubs in over 350 schools around the country. To find out more about the work of CSC in schools, please visit our website here.
