U.S. Antique Shows Adds Fall Show in Florida

The debut event will take place in Miami’s Coconut Grove neighborhood this fall.

The 2025 Coconut Grove Jewelry and Watch Show will take place Nov. 14-16 at The Hangar at Regatta Harbour.
New York—U.S. Antique Shows has announced it will host a new show in Coconut Grove, an upscale neighborhood in Miami, later this year. 

The Coconut Grove Jewelry and Watch Show (CGJWS) will launch this fall, set to take place Nov. 14-16 at The Hangar at Regatta Harbour. 

It will join the U.S. Antique Show’s portfolio of events, which includes the Original Miami Beach Antique Show (OMBAS) and the Las Vegas Antique Jewelry and Watch Show (LVAJWS). 

Like the other events, CGJWS will feature a curated selection of esteemed antique, vintage, and estate jewelry and timepiece dealers.  

With only 80 exhibition spaces, the event will boast an intimate and bespoke environment, organizers said. 

“Our dealers have been asking us to return to South Florida in the fall for years, and we are delighted to host this prestigious reintroduction of an event that has a proven track record of success,” said Andrea Canady, show manager for U.S. Antique Shows.  

“We look forward to identifying select dealers from within our robust roster to showcase a breadth of the finest merchandise to an engaged audience of consumers and retailers.”

The show is strategically timed, organizers said, to cater to both collectors and retail buyers preparing for the holiday season. 

The event is designed to create space for vendors to engage with buyers, as well as opportunities for dealer-to-dealer trading. 

“We need a reputable antique, vintage, and estate show in the fall in America; it’s something that’s been lacking for years,” said Kurt Rothner of estate jeweler Excalibur.

“The Hangar at Regatta Harbour provides an intimate setting conveniently located in close proximity to a large number of qualified, motivated collectors. The Coconut Grove Jewelry and Watch Show is also a fantastic opportunity for stores to source merchandise to fill their cases in advance of the busy holiday shopping season.”

Morgan Cardet, partner at Matthew Bain, a pre-owned, luxury watch dealer, said Coconut Grove is having a moment.

“The real estate has gone through the roof, a number of phenomenal new restaurants have opened there recently, and locals from all over Miami come to the area to eat, shop, and walk around.” 

Cardet adds, “We’ve long needed an event in the fall, and the Hangar at Regatta Harbour is a spectacular venue to have a show. There are a lot of outdoor bars and restaurants nearby, it has terrific views and it’s just a really nice environment for showcasing high end merchandise.”

Applications for space at the CGJWS are open now. Applicants must provide information about their businesses and submit references.
