Edelsteintage Bremen

Edelsteintage Bremen is a fascinating annual public trade fair dedicated entirely to the world of minerals, gemstones, fossils, and creative jewelry. Held at the Messe Bremen & ÖVB-Arena—one of Northern Germany’s most prominent event venues—it brings together enthusiasts and professionals in a unique atmosphere to network, explore, and shop.

The event is organized by Crystal Events UG, based in Idar-Oberstein—a town renowned for generations as Germany’s gemstone capital, synonymous with quality, expertise, and innovation in the jewelry and mineral industry.

At the heart of Edelsteintage Bremen lies a diverse and captivating range of topics. Visitors can look forward to a high-quality selection of minerals and gemstones from around the world, vibrant crystals, rare fossils, handcrafted jewelry, and unique creations made from gemstones and natural materials. In addition to an impressive variety of collector’s items, the fair places a strong focus on the creative possibilities for both amateur and professional jewelry designers. From raw stones and drilled single pieces to strands of pearls and premium accessories, everything needed for individual jewelry-making is available.

One of the fair’s special highlights is its interactive nature. Visitors can have their own pieces identified free of charge by experts, crack open geodes themselves, or work on gemstones at designated drilling stations. Live cutting demonstrations vividly illustrate how sparkling gemstones emerge from rough, unremarkable stones—an experience that fascinates curious newcomers and seasoned collectors alike.

Exhibitors from all over the world participate, mainly representing the fields of mineral trading, jewelry design, paleontology, and accessory manufacturing. This makes the fair equally appealing to professionals—such as jewelers, dealers, designers, and collectors—and to families, hobbyists, and curious visitors in search of one-of-a-kind pieces or special gifts.

Edelsteintage Bremen is more than just a marketplace—it is a cultural event with a strong regional connection. Bremen, with its rich trading heritage and maritime history, offers the perfect setting for this sparkling encounter with nature. The venue is centrally located, easily accessible by public transport, and just a short walk from the main train station. Ample parking is also available nearby for those arriving by car.

Anyone with an interest in gemstones, minerals, jewelry, or creative craftsmanship should not miss the next edition of Edelsteintage Bremen—an event that goes far beyond the traditional trade fair experience.

The Edelsteintage will take place on 2 days from Saturday, 14. February to Sunday, 15. February 2026 in Bremen.
