Hardrock Summit
North American trade show for jewelry gems minerals and fossils with exhibits lectures and wholesale buying
The Hardrock Summit is a trade show that debuted in 2021 and brings the jewelry, gemstone, mineral, and fossil industries, enthusiasts, and collectors under one roof. The show was held at the Colorado Convention Center in Downtown Denver until 2024 and is now operating out of the Westin Hotel in Westminster, Colorado.
This is the only event in North America that brings together professional retail buyers, fine jewelry, gemstones, and high-end mineral specimen dealers. It is strategically timed right before the holiday buying season, when professionals purchase for Q4.
Attendees can connect, discover, learn, and do business with trade professionals and the general public in an upscale yet accessible venue. Other offerings include expert-led educational lectures, panel discussions, and curated exhibits.
