Get ready – an all-new trade show for the gem, jewelry, mineral and fossils industries is soon to rock downtown Denver, Colorado from September 16 - 21, 2021. The HardRock Summit will feature two key venues: “Evolution” for minerals and fossils at the Colorado Convention Center from September 16 – 19; and “Sparkle & Joy” a destination for fine gemstones and jewelry at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel from September 18 – 21. The two venues are within walking distance of each other and are connected by a complimentary shuttle service on the overlap days to allow visitors to easily move from one location to the other.

The HardRock Summit will consist of over 200 exhibitors with many international companies not being able to attend this year.” In addition, the Denver Gem & Mineral Show will hold their annual show for the first time at the Colorado Convention Center adjacent to the Evolution show, and American Gem Trade Association (AGTA) will have dedicated AGTA Gemfair pavilion within the Sparkle & Joy venue.

In addition to having very special exhibits at the Evolution show, the HardRock Summit 2021 will feature special exhibits at the Sparkle and Joy venue to include the most fascinating gems and crystals from the Gene Meieran collection and famous tourmalines from Maine.

The HardRock Summit 2021 is brought to you by a team of specialists, led and driven by its two co-founders, Christoph Keilmann, organizer of The Munich Show and Gemworld Munich, the largest trade fair in Europe for minerals, gemstones and jewelry, and Wolter Mehring, an international entrepreneur and gemstone industry expert noted for his role in the development and rapid growth of the Pueblo Gem & Mineral Show in Tucson, Arizona.

“Denver was chosen as the location for the HardRock Summit because it’s a beautiful city with a rich history rooted in nature, science and mining as well as being a thriving business hub. In addition to the access to incredible accommodations, amenities and transportation – the public awareness and appreciation for minerals, gemstones and fossils is ever growing,” says Mehring.

Keilmann and Mehring aim to create an unprecedented, high-class event for commerce, connection and education and have brought on seasoned group of industry expert ambassadors - Alan Hart (Gemstones), Manos Phoundoulakis (Jewelry), Dave Waisman (Minerals) and Kirby Siber (Fossils).
