The SEMA Show takes over the Las Vegas Convention Center from November 3 to 6. Run by the Specialty Equipment Market Association, it’s the world’s biggest show for automotive aftermarket and specialty parts.
It’s a trade show first. Buyers from parts retailers, tuning shops and distributors come to place orders, and the public is let in on Friday, November 6 only. The floor sold out months before opening, according to SEMA’s own news service.
The custom builds get the photos: lifted trucks, restomods, EV conversions and wild show cars line the halls and the outdoor areas. Behind them, the business is wheels, lighting, performance parts, accessories and tools. There are also more than 99 free education sessions.
If you’re anywhere in the aftermarket business, SEMA is the one week of the year everyone is in the same city.
