Attendee registration for the 2026 SEMA Show is officially open. 

Set for November 3-6 in Las Vegas, the SEMA Show delivers an attendee experience unlike any other, bringing together thousands of world-class vehicle displays alongside even more of the newest automotive aftermarket products from both emerging and established exhibitors.  

"SEMA is a must-attend event and on so many gearheads' bucket lists for a very good reason. When you arrive, you'll see hundreds of builds that you just cannot even intake all of the information. And then there are so many people; it's like the industry is full of opportunities for important relationships," said Emily Reeves, creator and enthusiast.

Set for November 3-6 in Las Vegas, the SEMA Show delivers an attendee experience unlike any other, bringing together thousands of world-class vehicle displays alongside even more of the newest automotive aftermarket products from both emerging and established exhibitors. The SEMA Show floor serves as the ultimate destination to discover the latest product innovations and vehicle trends shaping the specialty-equipment market.

"SEMA to me is filled with versatility and dynamic builds and people and products. It's wild to walk the Show floor and really look at all the innovation and the passion that each of these [brands] has with their products. And then you look at the builds the people put hours of blood, sweat and tears into, and you can't help but have respect for it," Reeves said.

Beyond product discovery, the SEMA Show is designed to drive business growth. With the opportunity to engage with SEMA's 2,300-plus exhibitors, attend sessions and explore emerging trends, attendees gain valuable tools and strategies to elevate operations and maximize return on investment.

The 2026 event will also feature education sessions led by top industry experts, covering a wide range of topics designed to help professionals sharpen skills, gain insights and stay competitive in a rapidly evolving market. Complementing the education program are live demonstrations, interactive features and specialty sections that highlight cutting-edge advancements across the aftermarket.

Attendees will be able to register for 90-plus educations sessions during the online registration process. For more information, visit semashow.com, the Registration Resource Center, or the 2026 SEMA Show floorplan.
