The HKTDC Hong Kong International Jewellery Show is one of the world's largest jewellery trade fairs, drawing exhibitors and buyers of fine jewellery, gemstones, pearls, diamonds and jewellery machinery from across the globe. It is held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) in the Wan Chai district on Hong Kong Island, a landmark harbourfront venue at the heart of the city's business district. For a hotel-booking traveller, the central location is a major advantage: the MTR subway, the Airport Express and abundant Wan Chai and Causeway Bay hotels put the halls within easy reach, and the compact city means most accommodation is a short ride away. Staying on Hong Kong Island near an MTR station keeps commutes minimal. Because the jewellery show is a high-value international event that can coincide with related fairs, well-located rooms fill and rates climb, making early booking sensible.

- Taxi queues form outside HKCEC at peak times, so the MTR is often faster during the rush.
Visa & entry
