Welcome
Welcome to UPenn Chess Club. Whether you’ve played chess your whole life or have no idea how the pieces move, we encourage you to stop by our meetings and events. Everyone is welcome, including non-Penn students.
Updates: Spring/Summer 2025
Weekly Wednesday meetings will return in the Fall next semester. We will have summer meetings from 4-6pm at the tables outside of the ARCH Building on May 10th, May 24th, June 7th, June 14th, June 28th, July 12th, July 26th, and August 9th.

“The beauty of chess is it can be whatever you want it to be. It transcends language, age, race, religion, politics, gender, and socioeconomic background. Whatever your circumstances, anyone can enjoy a good fight to the death over the chess board.”
