tournament venue

The Lyon International Go Tournament will take place, as last year, in the Maison Familiale et Rurale, in Balan, on the 15th and 16th october.
Proud of having an international tournament, we expect to host the top European players, especially to answer to the challenge Man vs IA, and play against MoGo.
The Lyon Go Club will take the opportunity of the event to initiate all newcomers wishing to learn the game.
On saturday evening, we propose to you a happy and dancing party, with the show of La Compagnie de la Chanson Sommaire.
We hope welcoming you in crowds to play go, in different ways, and have a good time near Lyon!
