I'm going to Holbourn to watch the World Championship match between Carlsen and Carruana next week. I've never been to a chess match before so I don't know quite what to expect. I'd like people to give me some advice as to what to do to get the most out of the experience.

Thanks in advance.

I’ve been to numerous Sinquefield Cups and US Championships, but never something as big as the world championship where there’s no real access to the players.
