Gem Faire-San Rafael 2027
Gem Faire San Rafael
Gem Faire is a long-running series of gem, jewellery, bead and mineral shows on the US West Coast, operated by Gem Faire (PO Box 1995, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91729; [email protected]; +1 503 252-8300). The organiser states it has been bringing gems, jewellery, beads and minerals together under one roof for over 38 years. San Rafael, in Marin County north of San Francisco, is one of the recurring stops on its multi-city show schedule.
Confirmed 2027 edition
The official event page (https://www.gemfaire.com/events/2027-2-sanrafael) and the official Show Schedule (https://www.gemfaire.com/showschedule) both confirm the San Rafael edition for 19-21 February 2027. Those dates fall on Friday 19, Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 February 2027, matching the day-specific show hours published by the organiser. The same official schedule also lists a second San Rafael edition at the same hall for 6-8 August 2027, so this city stop runs twice a year.
Show hours: Friday 12:00-18:00, Saturday 10:00-18:00, Sunday 10:00-17:00, plus a Wholesale Preview for trade buyers on Friday 10:00-12:00. Because opening and closing times differ by day, no single startTime/endTime is asserted on this record; the daily hours are documented here instead.
Venue
Marin Center, Exhibit Hall, 10 Avenue of the Flags, San Rafael, CA 94903, United States. The hall sits on the Marin County Civic Center campus in San Rafael, California.
Format and admission
This is a public consumer gem and jewelry show rather than a trade-only exhibition. Visitors shop directly from importers, wholesalers and artisans for gemstones, crystals, fine and fashion jewellery, millions of beads, gold and silver, fossils, and the tools and supplies to create with them. A Friday morning Wholesale Preview serves trade buyers sourcing materials. Admission is a $7 weekend pass purchased at the door; children 12 and under and seniors 70+ enter free, and an online free-pass registration is offered. Tickets are sold at the venue, so the show is open to collectors, makers and the general public.
