SEMA News Editors' Note on Tuesday, October 1:
SEMA Show management is aware of a CompuSystems issue preventing SEMA Show/AAPEX registration. SEMA is working with the vendor to resolve the situation as soon as possible and will extend the price deadline to accommodate those who did not register before the previously announced badge price increase deadline.
The domestic badge mailing process will not be affected by this outage. More details will be announced as soon as they are available. Those with questions or who would like to be notified when the SEMA Show registration portal is re-opened, contact RegMgr@sema.org.
"We appreciate your patience as we resolve this matter and will provide updates as they become available," SEMA Show management.
There is about one month to the 2024 SEMA Show, November 5-8, in Las Vegas. Registration is only $60 for qualified attendees who register by the extended deadline (to be announced). After, the price will increase to $120 per approved badge. Deadlines and fees for other registration categories can be found at semashow.com/register.
After registering online, it's vital to secure hotel reservations online here, available at the lowest possible nightly rates through SEMA's ONLY official hotel provider, onPeak. SEMA Show and onPeak offer attendees and exhibitors the best rates at an extensive list of the best hotels in Las Vegas.
