INHORGENTA MUNICH will take place from April 8 to 11, 2022
So far around 800 exhibitors, including many new brands
Guaranteed: safe and successful trade fair experience
Spring can come: the leading trade fair for the European jewelry industry will open its doors in Munich from April 8 to 11, 2022. Around 800 exhibitors have registered until now. The conference program will offer experts a platform to examine the key topics of sustainability and the future of retail. Outstanding craftsmanship will be celebrated at the INHORGENTA AWARD gala evening.
“We sense great optimism and confidence among our customers: across Europe, the pandemic measures are being eased and the jewelry industry is in a stable position—and both these factors are reflected in the participation at INHORGENTA MUNICH with around 800 registered exhibitors to date,” explains Klaus Dittrich, Chairman and CEO of Messe München. “This impressively endorses Europe’s leading trade show for jewelry, watches and gemstones.” Although INHORGENTA MUNICH will cover five instead of six halls and thus be a bit more compact this year, it will still be able to offer a comprehensive, international market overview and be a platform for valuable contacts. “Our protection and hygiene concept ensures a safer trade fair visit—not least because the various rules have been established and learned by everyone involved.”
The new date in spring convinces many exhibitors
Thomas Sabo and many other new exhibitors follow INHORGENTA MUNICH to the new date in spring, for example Ana Cardim, Bloch & Co, EDC, egf Manufaktur, Farbergé, Frieden, Giovanni Raspini and Infinite Office. The watch segment will welcome for the first time Belchengruppe, Cyrus Watches, Daniel Wellington, Giberg, LIU JO, Mondaine, Montres Edox, Nordgreen, SEIKO and Sherpa Watches.

One-time move of the C halls
For this edition of the fair, the “Contemporary Design” sector will be divided between two other halls: the jewelry designers and manufactures, the exhibitors of the Concepts Forum and the exhibitors of the special Sustainability, Silversmithing and Brand New areas will be located in Hall B2 “Elegance & Lifestyle”—classic jewelry, gemstone, lifestyle and trend jewelry. The sectors INHORGENTA Campus, Future Retail, TRENDFACTORY and Campus Talks will move to Hall A2 “Technology & Bijoux”—home to watchmaking schools as well as technology, workshop equipment, packaging and software companies. The “Contemporary Design” sector’s special hall design will be relocated as well. Due to the vaccination center and a parallel event, Hall C1 “Carat” will also move once, namely to B3, which houses gemstones, pearls and genuine stone jewelry.
