Vicenzaoro January 2027 is scheduled for 15 to 19 January 2027 at Fiera di Vicenza, Italy. Organised by the Italian Exhibition Group (IEG), Vicenzaoro is a major international jewellery trade show covering the full production chain, and is held together with T.Gold for precious-metal processing machinery and technology.
Indian professionals travelling to attend generally need a Schengen Business Visa (short-stay, Type C) for Italy. A confirmed trade-visitor registration and an invitation or confirmation letter from the organiser or an Italian business partner support the application.
The event
About Vicenzaoro January 2027
Vicenzaoro is one of the events that sets the calendar for the international jewellery trade. It brings together finished-jewellery manufacturers, gemstone and diamond traders, machinery and technology companies, and buyers, agents and press from around the world. Trend and design programmes run alongside the exhibition.
India is one of the world’s largest gem and jewellery exporters, and Vicenzaoro is a direct route to European and international buyers and distribution partners. The co-located T.Gold show is also a way for Indian manufacturers to compare processing and CAD/CAM technology.
