For three days, from 29-31 January 2012, the Bourse trading halls of the 105-year-old Antwerp Diamond Bourse and the even older Antwerp Diamond Club will host the third edition of this by invitation-only diamond trade fair.
Held at the heart of the world's most famous diamond centre, this prestigious fair offers visitors an unprecedented array of business opportunities, such as finding new stone sources and forging new contacts. Buyers will find that the products on offer are very competitively priced as well as being almost unobtainable in the rest of the diamond world. Excellent service including timely despatch and delivery come as standard.
The trade fair being held in the historic trading halls of Antwerp's two oldest diamond exchanges will allow visitors to view and compare diamonds in a relaxed setting as well as giving them a chance to see an exceptional selection of diamonds on offer from more than 60 diamond companies.
One of the highlights of the events planned for the Third Antwerp Diamond Trade Fair (ADTF) is the gala reception on January 30th in the Antwerp MAS Museum.
Hosted by Alderman Philip Heylen on behalf of the Antwerp Municipality, the reception will allow the trade fair's visitors to admire the buildingâs 203ft tall distinctive facade that alternates between red sandstone from India and glass panes. The International publication
Travel+Leisure magazine, recently selected Antwerp's MAS as one of world's beautiful museums.
