With a prize fund of 2 million Euros, the event is scheduled to kick off on November 24 and last until December 16.
It was confirmed, as well, that the match will be held at Expo 2020 in Dubai. The World Expo, which was originally scheduled to start in October 2020, decided not to change the name of the massive event (to 2021) for marketing and branding purposes.
The press release by FIDE states: “The FIDE World Chess Championship will take place at the state-of-the-art Dubai Exhibition Centre, co-located at Expo 2020. The Championship will also include a series of side events, including exhibition matches and appearances by former champions and celebrity fans.”
