Bedfordshire Open - Luton — Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Championship
Date: 6 Feb 2027
Join us at a modern, well-located leisure centre just off the M1 J10 and a 5-minute walk from Luton Airport Parkway (rail). Venue 360 has an on-site bar/restaurant serving hot food and drinks, and there’s a large retail park opposite for anything you need on the way home.
Arrival & Call-ups
Team trophies for the top three teams (1st, 2nd, 3rd) based on medal rankings.
Head Coach Pass available if your academy has 10+ athletes competing.
Otherwise, you may apply for a Coach Pass.
Please email lutonopenbjj@gmail.com to request a pass. Without a pass, coaches are not allowed inside the barriers.

We run with an experienced, IBJJF-qualified refereeing team and a fully qualified first aider with BJJ competition experience.
