History
Final edition
2022 ADCC World Championship
The ADCC Submission Fighting World Championship is an international submission grappling competition, organised by the Abu Dhabi Combat Club (ADCC).[2] The inaugural tournament was held in Abu Dhabi, UAE in 1998. It has been held every two years since 2001, except in 2021 due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic. Host countries have included Brazil, China, Finland, Spain, the UK, and the US.
Competitors can only participate after winning ADCC trials or by invitation.[3] While most athletes are primarily from Brazilian jiu-jitsu, it is open to competitors from any grappling style. ADCC is considered the most prestigious submission grappling tournament in the world, and is commonly referred to as "the Olympics of grappling".[4][5]
The 2022 edition took place in front of 13,000 fans in attendance at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. In 2024 it will be held 17-18 August at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.[6]
