Hong Kong Jewelry Trade Shows Change Dates
The gem and jewelry shows also switched venues and will now be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Hong Kong—The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has once again moved its gem and jewelry trade shows.
The Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show and the Hong Kong International Jewellery Show will now be held July 25-29.
Previously scheduled to run from July 2-6, the shows were moved to later in the month after consultation with industry representatives and key stakeholders, said HKDTC in a statement.
Both fairs will be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. Previously, they were set to be held at the AsiaWorld-Expo center.
The shows were not held in 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions, then were pushed into 2021 and have been postponed a few times since.
More details about the date change will be provided to exhibitors in “due course,” HKTDC said.
