Desert Gardens International Rock, Gem & Mineral Show
Desert Gardens Show Grounds
More than 150 vendors from 15 countries, for two months
Show week
Every winter the desert town of Quartzsite in western Arizona fills with rock, gem and mineral vendors. From early January to the end of February the show grounds open one after another: the Tyson Wells Rock & Gem Show for ten days in early January, the Pow Wow of the Quartzsite Improvement Association in late January, held since 1967, and the Gold, Treasure & Craft Show in February. Desert Gardens stays open for the whole season.
Most of it is outdoors, and admission is free at most of the grounds. Below are the shows we list, with dates, hours and admission.
