About Perth Gem and Mineral Show (PGMS)

After the roaring success of the 2021 inaugural edition, the Perth Gem and Mineral Show (PGMS) is back for its second year!⁠

Attracting a large contingent of mineral collectors, geologists, jewellers, mining professionals, students, hobbyists and commercial dealers, this event enables businesses from the mineralogical, geological and geoscience sectors to share their collections and knowledge with fellow peers and the general public.

With over 3000 visitors coming through the gates in 2021, the Perth Gem and Mineral Show will again be held at the Curtin University Stadium this year. Spanning over 3 days, the event will showcase many of the wonders from the mineral, gem and geoscience communities, with a special focus on Western Australia’s mineral heritage.
