(MIAMI BEACH, FLA.) – JIS Fall 2026 returns to the Miami Beach Convention Center, October 16-19, 2026, as an essential sourcing destination for jewelry retailers making critical final inventory decisions ahead of the holiday selling season. With access to more than 600 exhibitors, immediate at-show delivery and future-order buying, retailers can fill inventory gaps, replenish proven sellers and secure trend-driven merchandise before peak demand.

Strategically timed ahead of the busiest retail period of the year, JIS Fall brings independent retailers, multi-store operators, and buying groups together with suppliers from leading jewelry-producing regions worldwide. Buyers can efficiently restock fast-moving merchandise, respond to late-breaking consumer trends and refresh their holiday assortments across fine jewelry, fashion jewelry, bridal, gemstones, silver, gold, accessories, technology and business services. 

Holiday sourcing remains at the center of the JIS Fall experience. Complementing the buying floor, this year’s show will offer timely education, networking events and interactive activations designed to help attendees identify what’s selling, meet new suppliers and make informed purchasing decisions throughout the four-day event.

On Trend Talks will bring current industry conversations directly to the show floor through three 30-minute sessions in the Trends Lounge. On Friday, October 16 at 1:00 p.m., Jen Cullen Williams will moderate “Beyond Metal: What’s New in Alternative Materials” with Victoria Gomelsky of JCK Magazine. 

On Saturday, October 17 at 1:00 p.m., Williams and Gomelsky will return for “What’s Trending in Design,” exploring the ideas and influences shaping jewelry design. The series will conclude Sunday, October 18 at 1:30 p.m. with “Ready for the Rush: Holiday Retail Trends Straight Off the JIS Floor,” featuring Williams and consultant Tammy Lail in a discussion about product and design trends and how retailers are preparing for the holiday season. 

“For jewelry retailers, timing is everything, and JIS Fall provides an important opportunity to make critical final adjustments to holiday assortments,” said Sara McDonough, Event Director of JIS. “The ability to source from more than 600 exhibitors, take immediate delivery of inventory and place future orders makes the event especially valuable this close to peak selling season. This year’s talks, activations and networking experiences will give buyers even more ways to discover what’s new and make every day in Miami Beach productive.”

The show’s networking schedule will begin with Seasonal Kickoff: JIS Welcome Reception on Friday, October 16 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. in the JIS Lobby. The reception will spotlight new JIS exhibitors and give attendees and exhibitors a relaxed setting to connect after the first day of buying. JIS Unwrapped will continue the experience on Saturday, October 17 from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. in the show floor Food Court. 

Throughout the event, rotating refreshment pop-ups will appear in the Brands, Accessories and Gifts, Equipment, Technology and Services, and Lab Grown pavilions. Daily Galleria beverage breaks will also offer attendees a convenient afternoon pause in the Galleria Lounge. 

Additional planned activations include a custom embroidery experience, a puppy activation, an interactive gem color forecast, and a gift-wrapping studio, creating more opportunities for attendees to pause, participate and enjoy the show beyond the buying floor.

JIS Fall will also welcome a range of new exhibitors, giving retailers additional opportunities to discover fresh collections and establish supplier relationships ahead of the holidays. New names currently featured include Jewels by Anu, Previato Corp, Sky Wing, Orchid Gems, Om Color Diamonds, Athra, AAB Style, Augusta Estrada Jewelry, Estojos Baldi, Gurjar Global, and Jewelerette & Co. Additional first-time participants are listed in the official JIS Fall exhibitor directory. 

Designed exclusively for qualified members of the jewelry trade, JIS Fall gives retailers a critical opportunity to react before the holidays: replenish best sellers, replace fast-moving stock, test trend-driven additions, and expand assortments. At the same time, there is still time to influence fourth-quarter sales. With immediate and future-order purchasing available in one marketplace, buyers can address urgent inventory needs while planning what comes next. 

Registration for JIS Fall 2026 is now open. Qualified jewelry industry professionals are encouraged to register before October 1 and begin planning appointments to maximize their time at the show.

Beginning October 1, a $25 non-refundable registration fee (inclusive of applicable taxes) will apply to registrations for retailers, wholesalers, designers, distributors, diamond and gemstone dealers, and attending professionals.

NRF Chief Economist weighs in on inflation and its impact on retail

(WASHINGTON) – Inflation is at a 40-year high but isn’t hitting all consumers as hard as top-line numbers might suggest, National Retail Federation (NRF) Chief Economist Jack Kleinhenz said yesterday. Nonetheless, consumer worries about rising prices could become self-fulfilling if workers demand higher wages to compensate and will play a role in the Federal Reserve’s efforts to bring inflation under control. “After decades of relatively low levels, inflation is on everyone’s mind and has been making consumers and businesses miserable as prices have picked up dramatically over the past year,” Kleinhenz said. “However you measure it, inflation has become a powerful force and plays a key role in the nation’s economic outlook.” “While actual price gains are expected to slow down in the coming months as they lap relatively high readings from the year before, the Fed is concerned about the risk of an unwanted jump in inflation expectations,” Kleinhenz said. “If consumers expect rampant i...
