Don’t miss the chance to witness some of the top amateur shogi players from across the world compete in a tournament-style format at the 7th International Shogi Forum in Kitakyushu. The event, which takes place once every three years, was previously held in Tokyo and Paris. This is the first time that it will be staged in Kyushu. A range of professional shogi players will also be participating at the forum, holding tutorials, signing sessions, and exhibition-style public matches.
