Start booking your SEMA Show hotel rooms now through OnPeak.

Visit the SEMA Show’s Travel & Lodging page now to reserve hotel rooms for the 2018 Show. Booking early allows attendees and exhibitors to take advantage of the hotel and travel discounts negotiated by SEMA Show management.

“We work hard to include hotel rooms in our room block for every budget,” said Tom Gattuso, SEMA trade shows director. “Often there are financial incentives to booking a room early. This works out well because our system allows for you to reserve a room with no deposit or cancellation fees. So you are able to lock in a low rate and also have the flexibility to modify your reservation if your Show plans change.”

OnPeak is the official SEMA Show Housing Services provider. Benefits to booking through OnPeak include:

• Guaranteed low rates.
• No penalties for adjustments or changes to reservation.
• No booking, change or cancellation fees.

The SEMA Show Travel & Lodging page features a frequently updated, real-time listing of the hotel deals and discounts available for the 2018 Show.

Read more about the benefits of booking through the Show’s official housing provider. 

Note: Attendees and exhibitors should be vigilant if approached by companies or services other than OnPeak that implies or claims to be an official housing provider of the SEMA Show. Management is aware of other housing companies and travel agencies that may be aggressively pursuing you or your company to book your guest rooms through their company at supposedly significant discounts.

Reservations made through an agency other than OnPeak are at your own risk. Exhibitors and attendees contacted by another housing company trying to sell hotel rooms should notify SEMA Show Management at 909-396-0289.

The first bill introduced in the South Dakota House of Representatives would increase the mileage limitation from 6,000 to 9,000 miles per year for special-interest vehicles and permit the vehicles to have personalized plates.

Two license plate bills have been introduced in the South Dakota House of Representatives. The first bill would increase the mileage limitation from 6,000 to 9,000 miles per year for special-interest vehicles and permit the vehicles to have personalized plates. A second bill would allow historic vehicles to have a single plate. 

Under current law, a “historic car” is a motor vehicle that is more than 30 years old, and a “special-interest vehicle” is a motor vehicle that is collected, preserved, restored or maintained by the owner as a leisure pursuit, and is not used for general or commercial transportation. Both bills have passed the House Transportation Committee and been sent to the House Floor.
