Last-Minute Hotels for the Tucson Gem Show 2027

2026-10-15

Still need a room for the 2027 Tucson gem shows? Who to call, which nights are busiest, and the closest hotels to each show cluster with phone numbers.

Visit Tucson's 2025 economic impact study counted 113,342 buyers and 6,709 vendors at the winter shows, so rooms go fast. If you're booking late, here's how to find one.

1. Call Visit Tucson

Visit Tucson's show FAQ says to call Visitor Information Services at 1-800-638-8350 if you need fewer than 10 room nights, or its Sales Team at 520-770-2166 for more than 10 room nights. Visit Tucson says its team "stays on top of where the available hotel rooms are."

2. Know which nights are tightest

Per the TucsonGemShow101 schedule (updated Oct 5, 2026), most shows run Jan 27 to Feb 14, 2027. The wholesale shows overlap Jan 30 to Feb 4 (GJX Jan 30 – Feb 4, AGTA Jan 31 – Feb 4), and the TGMS Main Show runs Feb 11 – 14. If your dates are flexible, look at nights outside those overlaps. See hotels by show dates.
