Much of Bangkok's organised chess happens at tournaments, and this page gathers the recurring ones: open championships, monthly rapid and blitz events, junior and school championships, and series held in schools and shopping malls. One-off events are left out; a tournament is listed when its sources show more than a single edition.
The date next to each name is the latest edition a source confirmed, or the next one when it is already announced. Entry rules, fees and time controls change from edition to edition, so open the organiser's page before you register.
