Bangkok is the busiest city for jiu-jitsu competition in Thailand, with close to 200 events since 2023. Nearly all of them take place within Bangkok itself, with the odd event in neighbouring Pathum Thani. Searching for bkk bjj, BJJ Bangkok or a Bangkok BJJ competition while training here or visiting, the list above shows what is coming up next.
For BJJ specifically, Grappling Industries Thailand runs Grappling Industries Bangkok, the Siam Cup hosts Gi and No-Gi tournaments including a Winter Edition, and the AFG Open International and IRIS Jiu-Jitsu Championship Bangkok are regular fixtures. ADCC Thailand also organises events. The Rookie series from JJAT, including the Central and KU editions, are ju-jitsu events. Muay Thai and MMA listings also appear in the city.
Because the city hosts ju-jitsu, Muay Thai and MMA events too, the BJJ mix is roughly equal between Gi and No-Gi, with kids divisions at a smaller share of events and absolutes at some. Grappling Industries rules are the most common, with ADCC rules at a few events. December is by far the busiest month, followed by April, February, October and August on the 2026 calendar.
