Vicenzaoro January 2027 returns to the renovated Expo Centre from January 15–19, launching the international jewellery and watch industry calendar. Organized by IEG – Italian Exhibition Group, the event includes three core shows: the main Vicenzaoro exhibition, T.GOLD for jewellery technologies, and VO Vintage, a public gathering for vintage watch and jewellery collectors.
Unified supply chain under one roof
The 2027 edition will welcome 1,300 brands from 40 countries, grouped into specialized clusters covering every stage of the gold and jewellery supply chain. Hall 2, opened in September, will centralize gold and silver production, white-label services, gemstone sourcing, and watchmaking. The layout merges Made in Italy craftsmanship with global industry leaders, creating a cohesive marketplace.
Specialized sections include CREATION for manufacturing, ESSENCE for gemstones, TIME for contemporary watchmaking, and ICON for high jewellery. Additional zones will cover packaging solutions, visual merchandising, and a cash-and-carry area for immediate purchases. This structure strengthens connections between suppliers, designers, and buyers, reinforcing Vicenzaoro’s role as a unified international platform.
The Jewellery Boutique Show, now fully operational in Hall 2, consolidates production-focused exhibitors, from raw material suppliers to finished-goods manufacturers, under one roof. This aligns with Vicenzaoro’s Master of the Industry branding, positioning it as a strategic link between supply and demand.
Innovation and sustainability take center stage
Hall 4 will host T.GOLD, the technology-focused exhibition, now held biannually alongside Vicenzaoro. The event will display advanced manufacturing solutions, including additive manufacturing, 3D printing, industrial automation, and precision casting. Exhibitors will highlight innovations in sustainable alloys, quality control systems, and circular economy practices, responding to industry demands for eco-friendly production.
The VO Awards, in their second edition, will honor excellence in high jewellery, fashion jewellery, and manufacturing. Winners will be chosen from the ICON, LOOK, and CREATION communities based on design innovation, sustainability, and technical craftsmanship. The awards highlight Vicenzaoro’s dedication to recognizing industry leadership and emerging trends.
The Design Room, part of the ICON community, will showcase high-end designers alongside new storytelling and research zones. These areas will inspire buyers and manufacturers by presenting cutting-edge techniques and market-driven creativity. The initiative reflects the industry’s shift toward trade shows that blend education, inspiration, and transactions.
Global engagement and cultural ties
Vicenzaoro 2027 will emphasize buyer engagement, with programs supported by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Italian Trade Agency. Matchmaking sessions, market insights, and networking opportunities will be available across specialized sectors. These efforts support IEG’s strategy to position Vicenzaoro as a business-focused platform offering real-time industry intelligence and direct supplier connections.
VO Vintage Opens to Collectors and Enthusiasts
VO Vintage will operate from January 15 to 18, 2027, in the Expo Centre’s first-floor foyer. The event is open to collectors and enthusiasts of vintage watches and jewellery, with no admission fee required. Registration must be completed online before entry.
Long-term vision for 2030
Vicenzaoro’s strategy extends to 2030, aiming to solidify its position as a global leader in jewellery and watch trade. Organizers emphasize a highly curated selection of exhibitors, content, and industry insights to anticipate market shifts.
