I posted it as a Topic in the International News category last month.
Plenty of advertising for the event.

Re: 46th Guernsey International Chess Festival
It's now on the ECF calendar, running from 16th to 22nd October 2022,
It's moved as well to
St James Concert and Assembly Hall
College Street
St Peter Port, Guernsey
Presuming visotors will need to arrange their own travel and accommodation, a location map would be handy.
The weekend it starts is a busy one for UK events, with Hull and Bury St Edmunds being joined by a new event in Penzance.

Hi Roger,
Here is a link to a map, https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mi ... 99034&z=17
Here is the standard Google Map for St. James, https://www.google.com/maps/place/St+Ja ... -2.5386775
Visitors will need to book their own travel and accommodation, the hotels listed on the website are the closest ones that have told us they had good availability when the website was launched. Two of them have discounted rates for players, but you have to call them to obtain the rate, details are on the website at https://guernseychessfestival.org.gg/ac ... -guernsey/.
I hope that helps.

... and here's another link https://goo.gl/maps/tgk8B9M7nJhGAkXx6 .
It's on the edge of the main shopping centre in St Peter Port. Several hotels in easy walking distance, as well as restaurants and bars. It's a former church, converted to an arts centre several years ago. Also, just across the road from the island courts, so easy for Russell Finch to pop across from the day job.

The organising committee for the 46th Guernsey International Chess Festival are pleased to announce that English ๐ช๐๐ ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฒ๐ถ๐น๐ฎ ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ๐๐ผ๐ป will be participating in this year's event.
Sheila is a ๐ณ๐ผ๐๐ฟ-๐๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ป๐ฒ๐ฟ of the British Women's Chess Championship (1975, 1978, 1980, 1981), is also a double Olympiad Silver Medallist (individual Silver Lucerne 1982 & Team Haifa 1976), and on her Senior Team debut she was also a double Bronze Medallist in Dresden.
