New Jersey Fall International Open IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu Championship 2026

Your guide to this IBJJF tournament: when and where it runs, how to register before the deadline, and how to follow the brackets live.

When and where

The event takes place November 21 to 22, 2026 in Secaucus. The event runs across multiple days, split by belt, age, and weight, so your division likely falls on a single day. Check the official schedule for your exact day and mat.

Registering

Entry is through the IBJJF and every competitor needs a current IBJJF membership. Registration closes before the event and the fee climbs as deadlines pass, so register early rather than risk a late fee or a closed division. Register and confirm the details on the official event page.

On the day

IBJJF weigh-ins happen right before you compete, in your full gi, so there is no weighing in the night before. Make weight on the day or you are out, and bring a backup gi that meets the federation rules on color and patches.

How to follow it

Finals from the main mats are usually streamed and the brackets update live through the day, so you can follow a competitor in real time. The official page is where the live brackets and any stream go up once it begins.
