The event ended with a 3% increase in visitors compared to the 2024 edition. Visitors came from 130 countries, with Spain, France and Germany leading the way. Attendance from Australia doubled, while there was also growth from China, Hong Kong, Japan and Brazil.
This year saw the debut of 15 non-European countries, including Madagascar, Mozambique, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Macao and the Dominican Republic.
Vicenzaoro Settembre 2025 will showcase a complete supply chain offering.
There were over 1,200 exhibitors, 60% of whom were Italian, from 30 countries. The event was sold out, thanks in particular to the complete and attractive supply chain offering, despite the current geopolitical uncertainty.
The B2B exhibition also hosted many buyers from 63 countries – led by the United States, the United Arab Emirates and France – thanks to the incoming programme organised by ICE Agency and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation. There were over 30 hours of in-depth events dedicated to trends, exports, artificial intelligence and training, as well as the presentation of the International Fine Jewellery Academy.
