2024 Lichess Meetup in Berlin

A weekend of team working, chess, and meeting the public for more chess.

From the 7th – 11th of November, 21 Lichess team members from several nations around the world travelled to Berlin for the annual team and public meetup.

Since 2013, Lichess team members have met up once a year in person. Most of the early meetups were in Paris, as Lichess is based in France, followed by meetups in Oslo, London, Montreal, Lisbon, and Barcelona.
