Until the pandemic struck, the Jewellery Show used
to be held annually by the Hong Kong Trade and Development Council (HKTDC) and attracts around 4,000 exhibitors
from more than 40 countries.
This year, the “two shows, two venues” format for
the exhibit was restored for the first time since the pandemic.
The Jewellery Show 2024 was held concurrently with
HKTDC’s 10th Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show at the
AsiaWorld-Expo.
