We’re honored to announce that the New Jersey State Chess Federation (NJSCF) will be celebrating its 140th Anniversary with a commemorative invitational tournament — and it will be hosted at the New Jersey Chess Club in Morristown, NJ, at the historic Masonic Lodge, from October 22–26, 2025. TIME TBD

This prestigious event will feature 10 of the strongest grandmasters from the Northeast in a fierce round-robin format — a true clash of titans filled with tactical fireworks.

While the NJSCF is organizing and directing this landmark event, we at the New Jersey Chess Club are proud to provide the venue and help make chess history right here in our community.

🎉 A century and four decades of chess excellence — let’s celebrate New Jersey’s rich chess legacy together.
