The women's 78 kg category in judo at the 2012 Olympic Games in London took place between 28 July and 2 August at the ExCeL Exhibition Centre.{{cite web|title=Judo - About|url=http://www.london2012.com/judo/about/|publisher=London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games|accessdate=26 December 2012|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130123095947/http://www.london2012.com/judo/about/|archivedate=23 January 2013}}

The gold and silver medals were determined by a single-elimination tournament, with the winner of the final taking gold and the loser receiving silver. Judo events awarded two bronze medals. Quarter-final losers competed in a repechage match for the right to face a semi-final loser for a bronze medal (that is, the judokas defeated in quarter-finals 'A' and 'B' competed against each other, with the winner of that match facing the semi-final loser from the other half of the bracket).

Kayla Harrison, representing the United States, won the gold medal, defeating Great Britain's Gemma Gibbons in the final; Gibbons was awarded the silver medal.{{cite web|title=Women's -78kg|url=http://www.london2012.com/judo/event/women-less-than-78kg/index.html|publisher=London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games|accessdate=26 December 2012|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20130103185521/http://www.london2012.com/judo/event/women-less-than-78kg/index.html|archivedate=3 January 2013}}
