Norwalk, Conn.—Registration is now open for the 2022 edition of JCK’s Las Vegas show, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.

This year, JCK will take place during the first full week of June, with show organizers selecting the dates based on availability at The Venetian.

The show is scheduled for Friday, June 10, through Monday, June 13, with Luxury’s invitation-only days happening June 8 and 9, and Gems—JCK’s gemstone pavilion—and JCK Talks opening June 9.

The JCK Show is open to qualified trade professionals, and registration is available on the JCK website.

As North America’s largest jewelry trade show, JCK consists of more than 20 different “neighborhoods” for product and trend sourcing as well as educational seminars, keynote speeches, networking, and special events hosted by JCK and industry leaders such as The Plumb Club, Le Vian, and Jewelers for Children.  

“After a successful reunion in 2021, we look forward to welcoming the industry back in an even bigger way and celebrating together with exciting new and returning events, JCK Talks programming, and transformative and inspiring experiences on the show floor,” said Sarin Bachmann, group vice president for RX Jewelry Group. 

“On top of the show being ideally timed for strategic ordering ahead of the holiday season, JCK continues to be the place where, in the past 30 years, the jewelry community has united to do business, discover trends, forge relationships, learn, and grow.”

The Luxury section of the show, which opens to all registered attendees on June 10 after two days of invitation-only buying, features jewelry brands in the high-end, bridal, and designer space.

Bachmann said Luxury guests can expect to be treated to “an even more illustrious experience on and off the show floor” this year.

She also noted the show floor is already sold out; there is a waitlist to exhibit at Luxury 2022.

JCK has reserved a block of hotel rooms at reduced rates for show attendees and exhibitors at The Venetian Resort. 

The special rates are available until May 1, on a first-come, first-served basis and may sell out. To book travel, go here.

In addition, there is still opportunity to exhibit at JCK. For more information, visit the show’s website.

More announcements on the 30th anniversary celebrations, JCK Talks programming, events, and other show news will be released in the coming months, organizers said.
