The WFCC 70th Jubilee Tourney 2026 (WFCC-70JT) is organised to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Permanent Commission of the FIDE for Chess Compositions (PCCC), later the WFCC (2010), in 1956. It is based on the format of the FIDE World Cup (8 sections, single judge, one anonymous entry per composer per section).
On the suggestion of WFCC Honorary President Klaus Wenda, the judges have been selected from the countries (or their successors) that were represented at the first ever PCCC meeting at Budapest, Hungary in May 1956.
The tourney director is Narayan Shankar Ram (wfcc70jt@gmail.com).
Composers worldwide are warmly invited to submit their best works.
