Tickets and the Kraków venue
The official event page names eBilet.pl as the ticket outlet. Start from that official listing and check the exact event, session coverage and seat before purchasing. Ticket prices and live inventory have not been verified for this guide.
The venue address is TAURON Arena, Stanisława Lema 7, Kraków. If you are travelling, keep the event listing available alongside your ticket confirmation; a streaming schedule does not establish arena admission times.
Worlds weight divisions
The competitor list uses the familiar rounded division labels below. For the precise limits in the event listing and the distinction between Worlds and Opens, use our ADCC weight-class guide.
| Men | Women |
|---|---|
| −66 kg | −55 kg |
| −77 kg | −65 kg |
| −88 kg | +65 kg |

The official event listing also includes the men’s Absolute division. Do not assume every competition carrying the ADCC name offers the same divisions. Our ADCC rules guide explains scoring and the distinctions readers should check.
Was Amateur Worlds part of the same tournament?
The ADCC Amateur World Championship was scheduled for September 11 at TAURON Arena as a separate competition. The day-one results above cover the professional Worlds, not Amateur Worlds. Entering the amateur event does not qualify someone for the professional tournament.
