Chess at the Olympic Games

Not to be confused with Chess Olympiad.

There have been attempts to include chess as a sport at the Olympic Games since 1924. The game made its debut as an exhibition sport at the 2000 Summer Olympics. Online chess debuted as an esport via Chess.com at the 2023 Olympic Esports Week. Chess has yet to debut as a full sport at the Olympics.
