The Hog Ring - Want to Host a Seminar at the 2023 AAPEX Show

Registration for the 2026 AAPEX Show in Las Vegas is now open. Don’t miss it!

The Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) bills itself as the largest annual trade show for automotive aftermarket industry professionals. It takes place every year in Las Vegas, Nevada, around the same time as the SEMA Show.

Whereas SEMA highlights performance parts and add-ons, AAPEX focuses on original equipment and products to service vehicles. It’s not as flashy as SEMA, but just as important.

The expo is co-produced by the Auto Care Association and MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers.

When: November 3 – 5, 2026

Where: The Venetian Expo, Las Vegas, Nevada

Cost: $50 online until June 26. After that, prices increase.

What to expect: 5,500 booths featuring new products and technologies, networking opportunities with manufacturers and suppliers, hands-on training, business seminars, and more.

“AAPEX is a defining event for the automotive aftermarket because it’s a venue for business networking that drives tangible outcomes,” said Mark Bogdansky, Auto Care Association’s vice president of trade shows and community engagement. “That’s our North Star for organizing the show every year: make it easy for attendees and buyers to find what they need and meet their business goals.”
