Most liked posts in thread: How to attend SEMA?

Mike S. SEMA is very strict about who attends. You must submit your bar coded credentials to enter the show. After entering the show if your id is not displayed on your person you may be ask by security for the credentials alone with a picture i.d. proving ownership of the credential. The whole purpose of the show is to show your (new) products to prospective vendors, wholesalers, retailers or distributors not for the general public.

 

Call Jan, he's always there, maybe he can get you in!

 

Heh. That's funny.

Do you write? If you can a small body of work in automotive journalism you can apply for a press pass. I have one but won't be able to attend this year.

Steve will probably hate me but Custom MINI Shop can obtain buyer credentials and add you as staff.

If you have an in with a vendor there you can be added to their staff roster as well.

Expect to pay your own way and for the cost of entry.

 

sure could................ostcount

 

I have my credentials, the nice thing is once you get them you dont have to apply again you get on their list and Email will notify you when to purchase for the upcoming year :biggrin5:

 

It used to be industry only but as the show began to fade a bit in 07 and 08 they started to let the general public in . Try this link and if it doesnt work for you message me and I will work something out for you .

Jim. Call Smogman1 (GP 1605) and see what he does to get in. He goes every year. Being a small business owner, I'm sure that's the key.

 

Dress up in one of those skimpy SEMA girl's outfits. I'm sure you could walk right in and no one would notice.....

 

Only if he was heading to the Wheel & Tire section... :lol:

I've gone as a "Friend of Ford" a few times and I've also gotten in with my buddies Auto-Detailing company as well. There are ways. Good luck.

 

Take pic's if you go with my suggestion.....:ihih:

 

All of the sudden Google has been delivering Attend SEMA ad's.

Look for one Jim over on the left side of the page, click it and register.

 

Nitro could probably get you in.

 

Jim. No matter how ya can get in, and likely you won't without an inside tie, but who knows... it ought'a be a FUN time!!!

 

Well I hope i see you there then Jim!

 

Good luck!
My company goes every year. I wouldn't mind going one year, but not with work :ihih:

 

look for the guy with the worst fabio like hair...........if that doesn't help......

you know what I look like:devil:

 

Jim I have been a SEMA member since 1979. Call me if you want to attend and pick some POP up for me! And Mark no he is not always there. hahaha!
