The 2018 Isle of Man Chess International is a 9-round Swiss tournament taking place from 20-28 October in the Villa Marina and Gaiety Theatre in Douglas, Isle of Man.

The top chess prize is £50,000, with £7,000 for the highest finishing woman. In case of a tie for first place the winner will be determined between the top 2 in a playoff (2x Blitz, then Armageddon). The time control is 100 minutes for 40 chess moves, then 50 minutes for 20 chess moves, then 15 minutes until the end of the chess game, with a 30-second increment from move 1.

No draw offers are allowed before move 30.
