Italy’s international jewellery fair, Vicenzaoro January, will celebrate its 70th anniversary in style this week, with trading beginning on Friday.
Vicenzaoro January will take place from 19-23 January at the Vicenza Expo Centre. The fair was established in 1954.
Seven special exhibitions have been constructed for this year’s fair, detailing the history and heritage of the event across seven decades.
Luxury jewellery, diamonds and gemstones, services, visual merchandise and packaging, and emerging technology will also be showcased.
Organised by the Italian Exhibition Group (IEG), this year’s show is expected to feature more than 1300 exhibitors from more than 35 countries. Visitors from more than 130 countries are expected to participate.
“The 70th-anniversary celebrations extend throughout the year, featuring exhibitions, a celebratory logo, and online content accessible to the community,” a statement from IEG reads.
“The success of Vicenzaoro reflects its ability to adapt, evolve, and anticipate industry trends, thanks to the support of companies, customers, buyers, institutions, associations, and media.”
Organisers declared last year’s January show to be an overwhelming success, attracting a reported record level of visitors following the interruption of the global COVID pandemic.
