Held over two days, the Annual Hervey Bay Gem and Jewellery Show is one of the premier events of the year for the Fraser Coast.

The Gem Show has been part of the Fraser Coast events calendar for over 45 years and attracts hundreds of intra and interstate visitors who are drawn to the event for the vast range of gems including sapphire, tourmalines, emeralds, garnets, opals and pearls; the exciting displays of gemstones and jewellery and the many activities which take place over the weekend.

There are demonstrations of faceting and other educational displays, raffles with excellent prizes, various food stalls and a fun atmosphere.
