At JCK the jewelry sells on a person, and every buyer comes by appointment. Purple Exhibits staffs JCK exhibitors with local jewelry models, appointment hosts, booth reps and evening hostesses for one $85 hourly rate per person; the crew is local to Las Vegas, so no travel lands on your bill. JCK 2027 runs June 4–7 at the Venetian Expo, and Luxury opens there on June 2 for invited retailers. Our jewelry models arrive with hair up, a neutral manicure and no jewelry of their own, and they follow your case rules: no piece leaves the tray without your rep. Book six weeks ahead; rush bookings need 72 hours.

Private appointments and evening events for top accounts.
The full floor. Appointment hosts at every booth entrance.

Last orders and pack-out hand-off.
JCK week runs across two levels of the Venetian Expo and the suites above. Tap a hall for staffing notes.
Schematic, not to scale. Hall sizes from our Venetian Expo guide; check your exhibitor manual for the halls JCK and Luxury use each year.
Upper-level hall with 32 ft ceilings. Tell staff which hall and aisle your booth is in: the upper halls connect through airwalls and the lower hall by escalator.
Escalators run from Hall B down to Hall G. Plan your crew’s route from the entrance they use each morning.
The largest upper hall. Long case runs and islands for the bigger houses need an appointment host at each entrance to the booth.
Connects to the Venetian Ballroom, where evening events and galas often happen. Evening hostesses can start their shift without leaving the building.
One huge lower-level hall with a low ceiling and no hanging signs. Booths rely on lighting and people to stand out, so a model at the showcase matters more here.
Private appointments for key accounts happen in the suites upstairs. We send a model and an appointment host who move between the booth and the suite.
Models who follow your case rules and hosts who protect your appointment book. These are the five roles we send to JCK.
Models with hair up and no jewelry of their own, wearing one look at a time.
Reps who present pieces on trays alongside your team.
Hosts for galas, dinners and suite receptions.
Models who show timepieces on the wrist for buyers.
Hosts who check names and keep showings on schedule.
Share your case rulesWho opens the case, how pieces sign out.

Luxury to JCKOne crew from June 2 to June 7.
Small details decide how a piece looks on a person. These are our standards for every JCK model.

A booth booking four showings an hour needs three people: a jewelry model, a relief model and an appointment host. The table sets that local three-person crew against flying the same team in for JCK week.
