Hello,

I am planning out my calendar of shows for the next two years. I know Intergem produces a ton of shows but can anyone tell me which ones are the biggest ones or give me any feedback as a vendor?

I can't help much on the national front, but locally, the Baltimore, MD show doesn't have a good rep--parking is a pain, the vendors have to schlep their wares across the building because of available entrances, and its not well attended. On the other hand, the Chantilly, VA show seems to be well-attended. I have a friend that vends her chainmaille jewelry there and does well.

I have heard Chantilly is good, along with St. Paul, Denver and a few others.

I've done the one in Chicago on occasion. My internal polling is of course far from exhaustive, but folks with gold and high-end stones tend to do pretty slow business. The cheap Chinese and Indian bead booths always seem to be pretty brisk, though, so it probably depends a bit on what you are selling.
