JIS Fall 2026 Returns to Miami Beach With 600+ Exhibitors and a Focus on Holiday Buying
JIS Fall 2026 will bring more than 600 jewelry exhibitors together with buyers from across the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean and beyond at the Miami Beach Convention Center, October 16–19. Timed for the important holiday buying season, the four-day trade event will give retailers the opportunity to purchase merchandise for immediate delivery and cash-and-carry, place future orders, or combine both approaches. Please note JIS is open to the qualified jewelry trade industry only.
The show will showcase jewelry, watches, gemstones and accessories across dedicated product categories, including Bridal, Designer/Handmade, Diamond Jewelry, Gemstones, Accessories & Gifts, Gold, Lab-Grown Diamonds, Men’s, Pearls, Silver/Fashion and Watches. The format is designed to help buyers navigate the show floor by category while discovering established brands, emerging designers, new collections and merchandise for the fourth-quarter and holiday seasons.
Among the new features for 2026 are On Trend Talks in the Trends Lounge, the Seasonal Kickoff: JIS Welcome Reception, a custom embroidery experience, puppy activation, interactive Gem Color Forecast, Gifting Studio and refreshment pop-ups throughout key pavilions.
First-time exhibitors include Oro Bio Gioielli, Miriam Zardozi, American Jewelry MFG / Blackjack Jewelry and Piro Jewelry, along with additional new exhibitors throughout the show.
Trend programming will be a central part of the event. Speakers include Jen Cullen Williams, Victoria Gomelsky and Tammy Lail, with sessions examining alternative materials, current design directions and holiday retail trends.
Spanish-language Trends Talks will be presented by Costanza Viera. Among the featured sessions are “Beyond Metal: What’s New in Alternative Materials,” “What’s Trending in Design,” and “Ready for the Rush: Holiday Retail Trends Straight Off the JIS Floor.”
