The Hamptons Jewelry Show, which will take place from July 23 to 26, 2026, is banking on a selection of prestigious pieces and the arrival of emerging European designers to captivate fine jewelry enthusiasts at its second annual event in Southampton, New York.
The Rise of a Must-Attend Summer Event
The Hamptons Jewelry Show will once again set up its summer home at the Southampton Fairgrounds. Building on the success of its inaugural edition in 2025, this exceptional show expects to welcome more than 4,000 collectors and connoisseurs passionate about the world of jewelry this year.
Its unique positioning remains unchanged: to make Southampton the summer epicenter of jewelry by breaking free from traditional distribution channels. The event prioritizes direct connections between exhibitors and buyers, offering pieces of international caliber in a setting designed exclusively for connoisseurs and collectors.
A Showcase of High Jewelry and Artisanal Mastery
For the 2026 edition, the fair will unveil creations from the most iconic luxury houses, such as Buccellati, Boucheron, Bulgari, Cartier, Chanel, David Webb, Graff, Piaget, Tiffany & Co., Harry Winston, Hermès, and Van Cleef & Arpels. Prestigious watchmaking will also take center stage with the participation of leading watch manufacturers.
Among the new features, the European Designer Pavilion, curated by Piazza Italia, will offer a premier showcase for historic European houses while introducing the continent’s rising generation of designers.
The fair will also debut the Studio Artists Galleria, an exhibition dedicated to avant-garde jewelry artisans and master goldsmiths. This space will celebrate the quintessence of handcrafted artistry, highlighting creativity, innovation, and the excellence of traditional craftsmanship.
Carefully Curated and Authentic
The event is meticulously curated by Hilary Joy Diaz, a designer, creator, and local figure in Southampton, alongside Rick Friedman, the fair’s founder and executive director. Together, they are solidifying the reputation of an event that, since its inception last year—with 3,700 visitors and around 100 international exhibitors—has established itself as an unmissable highlight of the social season in the Hamptons.
