Editor’s Note
The Amber Trip 2026 fair in Vilnius highlights the evolving trends and business prospects within the international jewelry sector, particularly for amber enthusiasts. This event underscores Lithuania’s role as a hub for innovation and networking in the industry.
From February 12 to 14, the international jewelry fair “Amber Trip 2026” will bring together creators and collectors in Vilnius. The largest international jewelry fair, “Amber Trip,” returns to the Lithuanian Exhibition and Congress Centre (Litexpo) in Vilnius with even more diverse trends, innovations, and business opportunities for professionals and enthusiasts in the jewelry and amber industry.
The three-day exhibition is expected to host over 150 participants and more than 10,000 visitors. Approximately 60% of its space will be dedicated to amber jewelry and 40% to high-quality jewelry and other precious stones.
Amber Trip is not just an exhibition; it is a platform where business and creativity, tradition and modernity, meet. Here, business meetings turn into partnerships and artistic discoveries into lasting friendships. For over two decades, Amber Trip has been considered the leading jewelry platform in the Baltic region, bringing together manufacturers, creators, art galleries, precious stone suppliers, and collectors from around the world. The growing number of international participants each year since the pandemic proves that Vilnius has firmly established itself on the global jewelry map.
What distinguishes Amber Trip is that amber is not just a heritage element here; it becomes an integral part of the dialogue between contemporary creativity, technology, and design. The exhibition will allow visitors to discover both classic Baltic amber objects and experimental works where amber is combined with gold, silver, titanium, and even unexpected materials.
The 2026 edition is expected to host over 150 participants from more than 20 countries worldwide, and buyers will come from around the globe, not only from Europe but also from Asia and the Middle East. The exhibition’s structure will maintain a balance between a trade fair and an art exhibition, making it equally attractive to professionals and the general public. A significant part of the fair is dedicated to business meetings (B2B): new contacts are made, collections are presented, and distribution and cooperation agreements are concluded. At the same time, Amber Trip remains open to the general public, inviting visitors to discover jewelry as an art form.
An important component of the exhibition is the international art jewelry competition “Art Jewellery Contest 2026,” which this year invites creators to reflect on the theme “Bridging the Gap.” The competition explores boundaries and gaps: between generations, cultures, tradition and innovation, man and technology. The selected works will be exhibited in a dedicated exhibition space, and the authors of the best works will receive awards from the commission and sponsors and will be invited to participate in the following year’s exhibitions.
To attract the most prestigious buyers and gallery owners, Amber Trip 2026 is organizing a VIP program offering exclusive conditions to international guests: accommodation, transfers, and personalized support provided throughout the event. This program thus strengthens the exhibition’s position as a leading international business platform.
The exhibition brings together designers, manufacturers, and professional collectors from Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and other regions. Participants and visitors will be able to discover the latest jewelry trends, business collaboration opportunities, and unique collectible items.
