LA Chess Social: FIRST EVENT OF 2025

A Special Chess Social at Santa Monica Pier – February 22nd

Get ready for a truly unforgettable evening where chess, community, and the ocean breeze come together! This February, we’re taking the Chess Social to a legendary location—Santa Monica Pier—for a night of spirited games, live music, and great company.

Join us at The Albrite, a charming pub perched over the water, where the sound of waves will mix with the buzz of friendly competition and lively conversation. Whether you’re a seasoned player or just discovering the magic of chess, you’ll find a welcoming crowd, thrilling matches, and an atmosphere like no other.

This special event is held in collaboration with our sister club, the NOHO Chess Social, so expect an even bigger and more vibrant gathering than usual! Plus, with several incredible live music acts, the night promises to be as entertaining as it is engaging.

So bring your best moves, a curious mind, and a love for good times—this is one Chess Social you won’t want to miss!
