Bridging Worlds of Wellbeing, Gems & Minerals
As the proud organisers of The London Gem & Mineral Show, we are dedicated to bringing world-class shows and exhibitions to the heart of the UK. This event serves as a captivating celebration of the Earth's natural wonders, featuring rare and exquisite gemstones, minerals, and crystals from around the globe. The show is not only a treat for collectors, crystal businesses, and enthusiasts but also an educational journey into the geological wonders that have fascinated humanity for millennia.
Our team at Wisdom on Wellness consists of two experienced professionals who share a deep appreciation for holistic living and the profound influence that crystals and gemstones can have on our lives. With backgrounds in event management, we curate unique and immersive experiences for our attendees.

Alix has more than a decade of experience in the events industry. Having worked with some very well-known brands, event spaces and locations, he is very experienced when it comes to the operations of a large-scale event. During this time, Alix struggled with his own mental health which led him towards the holistic wellbeing industry, thus creating Wisdom on Wellness.
