Abstract
After 50 years, the final World Computer Chess Championships will be held in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, October 19–24, 2024. Most of the world’s strongest programs will be competing for the coveted Shannon Trophy. In addition to the tournaments, there will be a very special event: the Chess: History, Experiments, and Search Symposium (CHESS), which will bring together many of the pioneers of computer chess.
