The story

Jingdezhen International Ceramic Fair Festival in Jingdezhen

First held in 2004, the Jingdezhen International Ceramic Fair turns China's 2,000-year-old porcelain capital into a global trade and culture platform each October, with recent editions filling roughly 140,000 square metres with over 700 exhibitors from dozens of countries. Jingdezhen holds UNESCO Creative City status for ceramics, and the fair showcases both traditional blue-and-white styles and contemporary international ceramic art.

Two thousand years of continuous porcelain production, dating back to the Han dynasty, is the claim Jingdezhen's ceramic fair exists to demonstrate: that this Jiangxi city is still a working centre of a craft most places only preserve in museum displays.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Few cities can claim 2,000 years of continuous porcelain production, and Jingdezhen's fair is built specifically to prove that history is still active rather than archived, with exhibitors ranging across raw materials, kiln technology and finished art pieces from a genuinely global exhibitor base drawing enterprises from close to fifty countries over the fair's history

02

The mystery stays covered

UNESCO's Creative City recognition for ceramics adds an institutional layer most trade fairs lack, and the scale, 140,000 square metres and 700-plus exhibitors in recent editions, puts it among the largest single-craft trade events in China
