An event backed by FIDE, the new Tour will comprise of three different disciplines. Fast Classic, Rapid and Blitz. The time control in Fast Classic is yet to be decided but it will be way lesser than normal classic time controls.

It's expected to be held in four cities, with at least one event slated to be held in Norway every year.
