InterGem International Gem & Jewelry Show operates as one of the largest touring gem show circuits in the United States, bringing professional gem and jewelry dealers to over 27 cities throughout the year. Each stop features 100 or more exhibitors offering loose gemstones, mineral specimens, fossils, beads, finished jewelry, and lapidary supplies. The touring format brings wholesale sourcing opportunities directly to regional markets that lack major gem show infrastructure, making InterGem a valuable resource for buyers who cannot regularly travel to Tucson, Denver, or Las Vegas.

For wholesale buyers, InterGem’s free admission policy for those with valid business credentials eliminates the cost barrier to frequent sourcing visits. The vendor mix typically includes international gem dealers, domestic mineral wholesalers, bead importers, and finished jewelry suppliers who travel the circuit. While individual show stops are smaller than major destination events, the consistent dealer base means buyers can build reliable supplier relationships that continue from city to city throughout the year. Rough gemstone parcels, calibrated cabochons, bead strands, and silver jewelry components are among the strongest wholesale categories.

The touring schedule provides multiple buying opportunities per year without requiring long-distance travel. Wholesale buyers should check the InterGem website for their nearest upcoming dates, as the circuit covers markets from coast to coast. Arriving at opening with wholesale credentials in hand ensures the best selection and dedicated attention from dealers who prioritize trade buyers throughout the weekend run.
