The Macedonian Chess Championship is organized by the Chess Federation of Macedonia. It was last held in 2011, although the Macedonian Open Chess Championship, which is also open to foreign players, continues to be organized annually.

Pre-independence history

The Socialist Republic of Macedonia held its first chess championship in 1946, which was won by Pavle Bidev [Wikidata], a four-time winner between 1946 and 1955.[1][2] Jovan Sofrevski won a record sixteen titles, and Risto Nicevski became the youngest winner at 20 years old when he won the 1966 championship; he won five titles in total.[3]
