Held from 5th to 9th September at the Vicenza Expo Center, VicenzaOro is not just any trade show—it’s the beating heart of the global jewelry world. This year, the exhibition featured 1,200+ exhibiting brands hailing from 30 countries, all under one roof—talk about a true international showcase!

Buzzing with Inspiration and Innovation


Walking through the halls, you couldn’t miss the buzz—booths brimming with sparkling creations, from haute jewelry to state-of-the-art packaging and cutting-edge visual merchandising. It truly celebrated every part of the jewelry supply chain, with a keen eye on emerging trends and future-forward design forecasting.

Building for Tomorrow—Today

While you were soaking in the displays, around you, construction was quietly transforming the fairgrounds. A sleek, new 22,000 m² central exhibition hall is rising—engineered to be “zero-impact” to your visit but destined to expand the experience by 2026.

Journalists had a sneak peak at the "District Renewal Project" that includes the construction of a new exhibition pavilion, Hall 2, set to be inaugurated for the September 2026 edition of the fair.

Of course, Vicenza wouldn’t be complete without the magic that happens outside the fairgrounds. This editions activities included a welcome party in the Piazza dei Signori, City Center, Vicenza, which felt like a reunion of old friends from all over the world, and and a rare opportunity to network and make new friends working the jewelry industry. Both Wolf1834 and Preziosa Magazine hosted cocktail parties that had the Aperol spritz’s flowing and the music pumping. A highlight was dinner the following evening at Trattoria Zamboni, a Michelin star restaurant in the hills of Vicenza we where we were treated not only to an exceptional meal, but to the sight of the full moon rising, an unforgettable experience . For our final evening we had the pleasure of attending a party hosted by La Prima Giolli, and there truly could not have been a more magical way to end this trip - incredible setting… beautiful jewels…world class entertainment… outstanding food, dancing, and great friends! A night to be remembered!


Scenes from the evening activities!


As I left Vicenza this time, I felt inspired, grateful, and excited for what’s next. This show isn’t just about jewelry—it’s about connection, creativity, and celebrating beauty in all its forms. And that’s why I’ll always come back.


Until next time, Vicenza—you’ve been unforgettable. 💎
