News DeskDubai, UAE – The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has announced the return of its flagship twin jewellery shows in March 2026, bringing together the global jewellery supply chain across two premier venues in Hong Kong. The fairs are expected to attract strong participation from buyers in the Middle East, particularly the UAE, one of Hong Kong’s key trading partners in jewellery and precious stones.
The 42nd HKTDC Hong Kong International Jewellery Show and the 12th HKTDC Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show will be held under a “Two Shows, Two Venues” format at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) and AsiaWorld-Expo (AWE). The arrangement aims to provide UAE and regional buyers with enhanced sourcing and partnership opportunities.
Scheduled from 2–6 March at AWE and 4–8 March at HKCEC, the fairs will also feature an extended online business-matching period from 23 February to 13 March 2026 via Click2Match, HKTDC’s AI-enabled platform. This hybrid model allows buyers to connect with exhibitors before, during, and after the physical events, expanding opportunities for networking and deal-making.
Under the theme “Fusion of Dazzling Beauty,” the 2026 editions will host global exhibitors showcasing an extensive range of finished jewellery, diamonds, gemstones, pearls, and premium materials. Signature zones at the HK International Jewellery Show include the Hall of Extraordinary, Hall of Fame, and Designer Galleria. Buyers can expect creations from renowned maisons such as Dehres, On Tung, Lili Jewellery, Karen Suen, Heinz Mayer, and Autore Pearls, alongside international brands like Giorgio Visconti (Italy), Cheté (Hong Kong), VAD LLC (USA), and Zen Diamond (Turkey).
The Designer Galleria will spotlight both emerging and established designers from Hong Kong, Mainland China, Taiwan, Japan, Thailand, and beyond, presenting trend-driven, fashion-forward pieces. In response to growing demand from Southeast Asia and India, the fair will continue its Gold Jewellery zone, introduced in 2025, featuring contemporary and technologically enhanced designs.
Creativity will be celebrated at the Hong Kong Jewellery Design Competition, with designers interpreting the theme “Pure Elegance – Natural Beauty.” Winning pieces will be displayed onsite, offering visitors fresh insights into jewellery artistry.
At AsiaWorld-Expo, the Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show will present exceptional loose stones and raw materials. The Hall of Fine Diamonds will feature rare large-carat stones, while the Treasures of Nature zone will showcase premium emeralds, sapphires, and rubies. The Treasures of the Ocean exhibit will highlight natural sea pearls of outstanding lustre.
To streamline visits, the fairs will employ the EXHIBITION+ hybrid model, allowing buyers to extend interactions beyond the physical environment. The HKTDC Marketplace App and official show websites will offer online self-authentication for verified buyer e-badges, reducing queuing and on-site waiting times.
