The second rest day of the World Championship 2024 is over and we are back now with live commentary on Twitch and YouTube - today with our host GM Felix Blohberger and returning guest GM Nils Grandelius!

Our December 1+0 Bullet Shield Arena, the first of seven daily Shield Arenas this week, is about to start! The winner will get a unique trophy and keep it until next month's tournament.

Our Game of the Month November Contest is underway: Share your best Lichess standard game played in November 2024 until 5 December! The winner will be announced on 14 December, followed by a blog post with commentary on the game.

21 Lichess team members from around the world travelled to Berlin for our meetup from 7-11 November: We summarised the days of chess, work and meeting the community in our blog. Thanks to TSG Oberschöneweide for hosting our public meetup and to Paul Meyer-Dunker from the Berlin Chess Federation for helping!
