2026 Ontario Open International Jiu Jitsu Championship - GI Edition

We welcome and invite all Jiu-Jitsu academies to participate in the 2026 Ontario Open International Jiu-Jitsu Championship - GI Edition

With over 2000 competitors competing in Gi matches during our two day tournament in May 2025 in Oshawa, it was very apparent that BJJ continues to grow each and every year. We had children as young as 4 competing and adults as old as 50 participating in the event. With competitors coming from all over Canada and US, the Ontario Open Jiu-Jitsu is an essential stop on everyone’s tournament schedule.
