Starting in 2012 for the first time ‘PEGASUS Courtyard Dresden GmbH’ kindly supported by ‘zmdi Schachfestival Dresden e.V.’ invites all Grandmasters of FIDE turning 75 years and above to a spectacular event into the chess capital of Germany, Dresden.
This annual event will take place from 23-25 August 2012 in Dresden.
