With new shows being added, a slight move of location for the Holidome Show, a new over $15 million complex being built for Tucson, and a renovated Tucson Convention Center.
Tucson Gem Show 2015 will certainly be an experience this year!

This will be the 61st birthday of the Tucson Gem and Jewelry Show with the 41st birthday of the Gem and Lapidary Wholesalers Show!
Last year was both their 60th and 40th Anniversary!

Tucson has come a long way since that photo of Old Town Tucson.
Changes are happening for expansion.
Make no mistake the Tucson Gem Show is here to stay!

With all the comments from first time attendees, they realize,
there is just no way to see it all in one attendance.

The Tucson Gem and Jewelry Show is HUGE!!

With currently over 36 Shows for 2015 in Tucson the amount of vendors, things to see, things to do and ground to cover is, to say the least, very extensive! Also the show prices that the Tucson Show is famous for will NOT be a let down! Deals and deals galore! The amount of deals on tables and floors are through the roof! Enough to keep you busy for a lifetime!

Here is a Google map of all the Shows:

This year the Tucson Show Guide is being divided into two books, which, if you have narrowed down what type of “looking” or “shopping” your more inclined to do, rocks or minerals, or gems or jewelry supplies, then this Guide will help you get on the right path.

The Tucson Show Guide has always been a resourceful book for the Show, allowing you to check out transportation information to get around, as well as the actual Shows themselves.
There is no other show like it on Earth!
