The V International Chess Festival was organized by the Central University of Bogota from 13th to 17th October. It consisted of the international Elite tournament, and two school competitions – one for juniors under 18 years (high school) and one for children under 12 years (primary).
175 players took part in the 9-round Elite Open. Cuban Grandmasters Aramis Alvarez Pedraza and Reynaldo Ortiz Suarez, and Colombian GM Sergio Barrientos shared the first place with 7.5 points each. GM Alvarez Pedraza grabbed the winner’s trophy on best additional criteria.
The organizers have also arranged various academic and artistic activities, conferences and exhibitions, parallel to the chess tournaments.
The University is holding the festival since 2006. Last year a closed Magistral with eleven Grandmasters from 8 countries was held to commemorate the Bicentennial of the Independence of Colombia.
