Organized by IEG – Italian Exhibition Group, the only Italian player among the top twenty exhibition organizers according to the Grant Thornton Stax ranking, Vicenzaoro will be the start of a new phase in the development of an ecosystem that originated over 70 years ago in one of the oldest gold districts. Master of the Industry , the new claim, encapsulates the strategic direction: to strengthen the event’s international leadership by showcasing the very best of the gold and jewellery supply chain and connecting it with the buyers who drive the markets and anticipate the industry’s evolution. Looking ahead to 2030, this vision aims to secure Vicenzaoro’s role as a primary platform for businesses, expertise and markets. From 2017 to 2024, the event’s development trajectory saw the consolidation of its brand and its international expansion, followed, from 2024 to 2026, by the infrastructural enlargement of the Expo Centre. Over the next three years, Vicenzaoro intends to further bolster its international standing and role in the evolution of the gold and jewellery sector through a highly curated selection of products, content and industry intelligence.
INTERNATIONAL EXCELLENCE AT THE JEWELLERY BOUTIQUE SHOW
Registration is now open for the upcoming edition of Vicenzaoro, which, together with T.GOLD, will feature 1,300 exhibiting brands from approximately 40 countries organized into specialised communities based on product type and market positioning along the entire supply chain. From the technologies on display at T.GOLD (EVOLUTION) to gold and silver manufacturing and white-label production (CREATION, CREATION INTERNATIONAL). From components and semi-finished products (CREATION MOUNTINGS) to gemstones (ESSENCE) and from contemporary watchmaking (TIME) and fashion jewellery (LOOK) to high jewellery (ICON). Packaging and visual merchandising solutions (EXPRESSION & VISUAL) and a cash & carry section for immediate, on-the-spot purchasing (DELIVERY at PALAKISS), will complete the supply chain.
The Jewellery Boutique Show layout will be at its full potential in the new, centrally located Hall 2 , inaugurated in September and entirely given over to gold and jewellery manufacturing. The beating heart of the trade show and the supply chain, this area connects and harmonises the industry’s various components. A single international marketplace that integrates the sector’s different specialisations by showcasing the very best of Made in Italy alongside international excellence.
THE TREND SHOW BETWEEN THE VO AWARDS AND THE LATEST IN HIGH JEWELLERY
At Vicenzaoro January 2027, new collections, product previews and innovative designs will reveal the creative directions that are shaping the sector. The second edition of the VO Awardswill honour creations from the ICON, LOOK and CREATION communities, highlighting the manufacturing expertise, sustainability and creativity that are helping to steer the future of the jewellery industry. As part of the ICON community, The Design Room will be back with the most sought-after high-jewellery designers and further enriched with new storytelling and inspiration areas where excellence and design research will take centre stage.
Two initiatives that will highlight the supply chain’s diversity and the ability of companies and designers to interpret market transformations.
T.GOLD, THE TECHNOLOGY HUB IN HALL 4
Hall 4 will host T.GOLD , the show for the most advanced jewellery processing technologies, which has been repositioned within the IEG Expo Centre last September, and is now aligned with the Vicenzaoro calendar with two editions per year.
