The Coober Pedy Gem Trade Show is a Great Outback Show in the Opal Capital of the World.

It provides the opportunity for miners, retailers and wholesales from around Australia and the world to showcase their products to the industry and the broader public.

Opal is Australia's National Gemstone. Although there is a lot of excitement around the large scale mining activities surrounding Coober Pedy, Opal will always be the heart-beat of the town. The Coober Pedy Gem Trade Show aims to develop the sustainability and prosperity of this colourful industry full of character and characters!

The 2011 Coober Pedy Gem Trade Show will be held on Sat & Sun 23rd & 24th April.
