Saudi Arabia’s jewellery calendar is set for a major moment this October, as Jewels of the World returns with its most extensive programme to date — expanding across Riyadh and Jeddah with a larger showcase of high jewellery, fine jewellery and exceptional watchmaking.
For the first time, Riyadh will host two dedicated editions. Jewels of the World Luxe will take place at the Four Seasons Hotel from 9–13 October 2026, while Jewels of the World Fine Jewellery will run at Mandarin Oriental Al Faisaliah from 11–15 October 2026. Together, the two events are designed to offer a broader, more curated experience across different segments of the jewellery world.
At the Four Seasons, Jewels of the World Luxe will bring together international jewellery maisons presenting high jewellery, rare gemstones, statement pieces and bridal creations. The edition will also introduce Timeology Nights, a new horological experience developed with 10Ten Labs and the Collector’s Watch Club. More than 30 Swiss haute horlogerie maisons and independent watchmakers are expected to participate, placing fine watchmaking firmly alongside jewellery at the heart of this year’s programme.
Meanwhile, the Fine Jewellery edition at Mandarin Oriental Al Faisaliah will spotlight a broader mix of established houses, emerging designers, regional manufacturers and retailers, creating a space where contemporary, traditional and innovative jewellery can sit side by side.
The 2026 programme will then continue to Jeddah from 19–22 October at Jeddah Hilton, extending the showcase beyond the capital and reinforcing the event’s growing regional footprint.
Over the past several years, Jewels of the World has positioned itself as one of Saudi Arabia’s most important jewellery events and among the fastest-growing in the region, bringing together international craftsmanship, cultural exchange and artisanal savoir-faire.
This year’s expanded format signals something bigger: Saudi Arabia is not simply hosting more jewellery events — it is becoming an increasingly important meeting point for collectors, maisons, watchmakers and designers from across the global luxury landscape.
