Judo at the 1986 Commonwealth Games was the first time that Judo at the Commonwealth Games was included as a sport. It was however just as a demonstration sport (alongside canoeing) and did not contribute towards the medal table.[1] The sport took place at Meadowbank Stadium and saw full capacity attendances.[2][3] The event like many at the 1986 Games was affected by the boycott of multiple nations.
