International Chess Tournament Website for Queenstar Open

The Queenstar Open is an international FIDE-rated chess championship held in Gampaha, Sri Lanka. It is organised by the Queenstar International Chess Coaching Academy. The fourth edition ran from 20 to 24 August 2026 at the Youth Development Center, Gampaha. It had ten classical rounds over five days, blitz and rapid side events, and a LKR 2.5 million prize fund. The event needed a dedicated website to bring in local and overseas players and sponsors and to keep players informed during the tournament.

Design and approach

The bold blue-and-gold design with illustrated chess pieces matches the Queenstar academy brand. An announcement bar and the hero keep the event's current status and key facts (dates, venue, rounds and prize fund) in view. The site is fully responsive across desktop, tablet and phone, and it runs behind Cloudflare.
