Throughout four dynamic days in Las Vegas, November 4–7, the annual SEMA Show reiterated its role as the automotive aftermarket’s premier business event. With 150,000 industry professionals, 2,300 exhibiting brands—including 500 first-time participants—and media from 140 countries gathering at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), the 2025 Show once again delivered an unequaled, concentrated environment for innovation, collaboration and growth.

“The SEMA Show stands as the global hub for automotive innovation and commerce,” said SEMA CEO Mike Spagnola. “It brings together leaders and visionaries to shape strategies that will define the future of mobility and aftermarket growth worldwide.”

Consumer spending on aftermarket accessories reached $52.65 billion in 2024, underscoring the vibrancy of an industry contributing an estimated $337 billion annually to the U.S. economy while supporting more than 1.3 million jobs. And the excitement and power of that industry was on full display at the annual trade gathering, showcasing a sector that continues to thrive and expand worldwide.

“The SEMA Show is a global pop-up marketplace where business and culture intersect,” said Tom Gattuso, SEMA vice president of events. “This year highlighted the industry’s ability to adapt and innovate, from emerging propulsion technologies to next-generation customization trends. By connecting manufacturers, buyers and enthusiasts in one dynamic environment, the Show continues to both shape and reveal the future of automotive performance and personalization.”
