Norwalk, Conn.—JCK, the annual jewelry trade show operated by RX, has opened its registration for its 2025 Las Vegas show at The Venetian Expo and The Venetian Resort. 

For over three decades, the jewelry trade show has brought together retailers, designers, brands, manufacturers, wholesalers, and industry professionals to source products, discover new trends, network, and learn from the education lineup, said JCK. 

JCK Las Vegas 2025 is scheduled for June 6 to 9, with select areas of the show floor opening a day early, on June 5. 

The areas and features opening early are the AGTA GemFair and the GEMS pavilion, the Hong Kong Jewelry Manufacturers’ Association exhibitors in the Hong Kong pavilion and select JCK Talks education sessions. 

Luxury is slated for June 4 to 9. Admission the first two days is invite only. 

“JCK 2025 is set to build on the extraordinary success of the 2024 event, which proved that even in a period of uncertainty, JCK is the place where we all come together, find optimism, and move forward to a bright future,” said Sarin Bachmann, group vice president for the RX Jewelry Portfolio. 

This year, the event’s theme is “Decades,” a celebration of jewelry and fashion styles from different eras throughout time. 

Bachmann said the 2025 show is the “perfect opportunity to appreciate the rich history of jewelry though the ages while enjoying what’s new and trending today.” 

Attendees can also look forward to new awards, events, and activations as well as new pavilions, brands, and jewelry lines.
