Chess has a wonderful way of bringing families together. ❀️ πŸ§‘β€πŸ§‘β€πŸ§’β€πŸ§’ 😊

Parents and children shared plenty of laugher, excitement and proud moments and memories that went far beyond the final result.

It was a chance for families to play together or just simply to slow down, connect and enjoy the game with the most precious people in our lives.

This video takes us back to our International Chess Day celebration at Times Square Center β€” a day filled with exciting chess games and a lovely time for families to enjoy the game together.

A big thank you to Times Square Center Dubai for putting together this wonderful video.

And once again, congratulations to all our winners, participants and families who joined us and made the celebration a day to remember. πŸŽ‰πŸŽŠπŸ‘

See you in the next events! 😊
