Carioca Arena 2, Olympic multipurpose stadium in Barra da Tijuca, Brazil
Carioca Arena 2 stands within the Barra Olympic Park complex, featuring modern architecture with a capacity of 10,000 spectators for sporting events and gatherings.
During the 2016 Summer Olympics, the arena hosted intense judo and wrestling competitions, followed by Paralympic boccia matches in the same year.

The venue connects to Rio de Janeiro's public transportation network through multiple bus lines and metro stations, offering convenient access from various city points.
