DIAMOND BAR, CA – April 26, 2017 –Registration to attend the 2017 SEMA Show is now open at www.semashow.com/register. The annual trade show for the automotive aftermarket is set for Tuesday-Friday, Oct. 31-Nov. 3, 2017, in Las Vegas.

Registration is offered in three categories: attendee, exhibitor, and media.

Attendee: Distributors, retailers, installers, and buyers who will be meeting with exhibitors at the 2017 SEMA Show should register using the “attendee” link. Applicants may be required to submit proof of employment in the industry, and approved attendees who register before the early deadline in October will receive their badges in the mail.

The SEMA Show enables automotive specialty equipment manufacturers to debut products and
connect with industry buyers from all over the world.

Attendees may also sign up for special events and seminars, including those offered by the Society of Collision & Repair Specialists (SCRS), Tire Industry Association (TIA), Inter-Industry Conference on Auto Collision Repair (I-CAR), and the SEMA Show Education program, which typically hosts more than five dozen sessions on topics such as trends, technologies, and opportunities.

Exhibitor: The exhibitor category is for company personnel working in the booths of exhibiting companies. To secure an exhibitor badge, individuals will need to have the unique password and user id that was provided, via email, to the primary (or key) contact at the exhibiting company. The primary contact may register the entire staff at one time quickly and easily.

Exhibitor badges are not to be used for non-employees, including contest winners, contractors, customers, and vendors. Domestic exhibitors (USA/Canada) who register before the early deadline in October will receive their badges in the mail. International exhibitor badges will be available for pick up onsite upon presenting a matching government-issued photo ID, such as a passport or driver’s license.

During registration, exhibitors will also be able to order complimentary tickets to the SEMA Industry Awards Banquet. Tickets to the banquet, which is attended by 3,000 Showgoers and considered by many to be the industry’s premier celebration, sell for $50 each.

Media: Journalists covering the SEMA Show can register for complimentary media credentials using the “media” link. Applicants may need to supply proof of media affiliation, such as bylined articles or business cards.
