How Judo & Wrestling Work

Judo contests are four minutes long. A perfectly executed scoring technique or submission can end a contest immediately, while tied contests continue into golden score.

Wrestling matches consist of two 3-minute periods. Freestyle permits attacks involving both the upper and lower body, while Greco-Roman limits holds to the upper body.

Planning a Downtown Combat-Sports Trip

Because judo and wrestling share a Downtown venue and run back-to-back during the Games, they work naturally as part of a longer Los Angeles itinerary. Judo is concentrated in the first week, while wrestling occupies the final seven days.

A Downtown Los Angeles hotel base also provides convenient access to other nearby indoor events. Xenia Events can build around one medal session, multiple days of one sport, or a combined wrestling-and-judo itinerary.
