One night. One stage. Celebrating the people and stories driving our industry forward––only at the 2026 SEMA Industry Honors in Las Vegas.
The SEMA Show is where the specialty-equipment market comes together. This year, after a full day of SEMA Show activities on Thursday, November 5, the celebration continues at the BleauLive Theater at Fontainebleau Las Vegas with the SEMA Industry Honors.
Secure your place at an unforgettable evening celebrating the people, companies and innovators driving the industry forward. From SEMA Content Creator of the Year to SEMA Person of the Year and other prestigious honors, the evening puts the spotlight on those making a lasting impact.
It's more than an awards ceremony, though. The evening begins at 6:00 p.m. PT with a cocktail reception, giving guests the opportunity to connect with peers, customers, partners and industry leaders over complimentary hors d'oeuvres and an open bar. At 7:30 p.m. PT, take your seat as some of the industry's biggest names are recognized on stage.
