General - Can I give my badge to a friend?

No. Badges CANNOT be reproduced, transferred or resold. All AAPEX and SEMA Show attendees and exhibiting personnel must be prepared to provide a matching government-issued photo ID upon request. Show Management reserves the right to refuse admission and revoke your badge at any time. If it is discovered you are allowing someone else to use your badge, that person will be escorted from the Show floor and both of you may not be allowed to attend a future Show.

General - Can I bring a guest?

No. There are no guest or complimentary passes, tickets, and/or badges for the SEMA Show. Other than a legal spouse, everyone must register and be approved to receive a badge. The SEMA Show is a trade-only industry event. It is not open to consumers or the general public. Guests do not qualify to receive a badge.

Exhibtor - What if I lost or forgot to bring my badge to the Show? Can I have it reprinted on-site?

Yes. If you arrive onsite and for any reason do not have your badge, you may have it reprinted onsite one (1) time only for a fee of $100 USD per badge. The fee for reprinting a Non-Exhibiting Company (NEC), Financial Investment Company (FIN), Manufacturer/Supplier/Buyer (MSB) and Vehicle Manufacturer, OEM (VMO) is $399 USD per badge. You may not have anyone else's badge reprinted onsite but your own. You will need to present an official, government-issued photo ID (like a passport or driver's license) that must match the name in your registration record.

Exhibitor - I have a Featured Vehicle in the Show. How do I register to get a badge?

No one may pre-register for a Feature Vehicle badge. Feature Vehicle badges are not mailed pre-show. Each Featured Vehicle is entitled to a maximum of two (2) badges at $75 USD each, and registration must be done onsite when you arrive at the Las Vegas Convention Center. When you check in your vehicle, you will receive a special registration form which you must complete and take to Exhibitor Registration to register up to two (2) registrants, maximum, per vehicle. (Spouses are included in the 2.)

Exhibitor - I don't have access to the Internet, or I do not want to register online. How can I register?

Pre-show EXHIBITORS may only register online via their designated key contact. Onsite registration is $100 USD per person over company allotment starting October 29th. We strongly encourage you to pre-register online to save time and money and receive your badge(s) in the mail if completed prior to domestic pre-reg deadline of September 25th, and international pre-reg deadline of September 11th.

Exhibitor - What if I don't want to provide unique email addresses for the exhibiting personnel I am registering?

Each exhibitor key contact must provide their own unique email address, as well as a unique email address for each exhibiting personnel registration to complete registration and a confirmation will be sent to each registrant. If a company shares one email address, registration will not be able to be completed. No exceptions.
