GemOscars Vancouver

GemOscars is an international B2B trade fair and exhibition for the jewellery and gemstone industry. It is positioned as a carefully curated showcase of quality, design excellence and commercial potential. The event takes place at the Italian Cultural Centre in Vancouver, a venue that combines cultural distinction, international flair and high-end exhibition spaces, reinforcing the premium character of the fair.

GemOscars is organised by CIGJS Canada, a Canadian trade fair organiser with an international outlook and extensive experience in delivering professional events for the jewellery and gemstone sector. CIGJS Canada actively connects manufacturers, traders, designers and buyers from around the world, strengthening Canada’s position as a significant hub within the global gemstone and jewellery trade.

The exhibition focuses on high-quality gemstones, diamonds and rare precision-cut stones, alongside fine jewellery, exceptional design pieces, luxury watches and selected antique jewellery collections. The offering is complemented by outstanding craftsmanship that blends traditional techniques with contemporary design, as well as by services related to trade, distribution, brand development and international market expansion. As such, GemOscars functions not only as a presentation platform, but also as a dynamic marketplace for business transactions, strategic partnerships and long-term B2B relationships.

Key highlights include curated presentations of exceptional pieces, exclusive industry networking events and—true to its name—awards recognising outstanding gemstones, designs and brand achievements. Exhibitors represent the gemstone and diamond industry, jewellery design and manufacturing, the luxury watch sector, as well as trade and distribution. The fair is strictly trade-only, attracting international buyers, wholesalers and retailers, jewellery designers, luxury brands, boutiques and decision-makers seeking quality, trends and new business opportunities.

The overall concept is rounded off by the venue itself. Conveniently located in Vancouver and easily accessible by public transport, the Italian Cultural Centre provides a prestigious setting for networking, presentation and trade. It offers an ideal framework for a fair that showcases excellence and facilitates international business at the highest level.

The GemOscars will take place on 3 days from Monday, 22. June to Wednesday, 24. June 2026 in Vancouver.
