Rendezvous
Rendezvous is the British Columbia Lapidary Society's annual gathering and features field trips, displays, auctions, and our annual general meeting.
2026 Rendezvous
Rendezvous was scheduled to return to Lillooet from May 15–18, 2026, hosted by the Hastings Centre Rockhounds. However, the venue has since cancelled the booking. Please stay tuned for updates on the new location.
Past Rendezvous
The British Columbia Lapidary Society and its chartered clubs have been hosting Rendezvous since 1958. Throughout this time we have explored a great deal of British Columbia and collected a wide variety of interesting rocks and minerals.
