Food Options at the SEMA Show

The Las Vegas Convention Center Offers a Variety of Dining Choices

By Chad Simon

You definitely won’t go hungry at the SEMA Show. Each part of the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) has its own concessions, and with the food court in the new West Hall expansion, Showgoers have even more options. Please note, due to COVID-19, all LVCC concessions will be cashless, so be sure to bring your credit cards.

Outlined in the next couple of pages are your dining choices and locations.

Member Lounges

The SEMA Members Lounge has three locations—one in the Upper North Hall room N251, South Hall booth #49031, and another one in the new West Hall, booth #58065. All three are exclusively for SEMA, SEMA Hall of Fame, Tire Industry Association and Society of Collision Repair Specialists members only. Members can sit down and enjoy a hot meal at the Members Lounge–North, while Grab ’n’ Go lunches are available during Show hours Tuesday–Friday in all three lounges. All locations offer a place for a quick break, charging stations for phones and laptops and opportunities to network with fellow Showgoers. Private rooms are available for meetings. Reserve yours in advance by visiting www.SEMAShow.com/mlmeetings.

Exhibitor Lunch and Appreciation Reception Monday

During Show setup days, SEMA staff will be handing out vouchers to exhibitors for sandwich lunches. Present your exhibitor badge and redeem your voucher at the nearest meal station to receive a sandwich and a bottle of water. The lunches are available Sunday, October 31, and Monday, November 1, from 11:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m.

Don’t miss the Exhibitor Appreciation Reception on Monday night, November 1, at 5:00 p.m. Located just outside of Central Hall on Silver Drive, it’s a great time to get to know other exhibitors, enjoy live music and good food, and preview some of the most exciting vehicles you’ll see at this year’s Show.
