Exhibiting at AAPEX 2026
AAPEX 2026 Booth Rentals — What Exhibitors Get
AAPEX draws automotive aftermarket parts, service and repair buyers (co-located with SEMA) to The Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, NV, November 3–5, 2026. AAPEX runs alongside SEMA at The Venetian — the service-and-repair half of Las Vegas automotive week, drawing parts, tools and technology buyers. Turnkey booth pricing for this show runs roughly $36,800–$59,500 for a 30x30 island on a fully-inclusive basis, with smaller inline footprints starting near $6,700. Because the show is in our home market, freight is short and labor is familiar — most of your budget goes into the booth itself rather than logistics.
Who This Footprint Fits
AAPEX skews to 10x20 and 20x20 product booths; larger parts and tooling suppliers take 20x30 islands. One badge covers both AAPEX and SEMA. Where we see the right fit at AAPEX:
- Auto parts, tools and equipment manufacturers
- Service, repair and diagnostics technology providers
- Distribution and supply-chain companies
- Exhibitors leveraging the co-located SEMA crossover audience

Las Vegas Logistics
Las Vegas is our home market. Booths leave our warehouse fully built and inspected, then move across town to the hall — no long-haul freight risk, and our crews work these venues weekly. Plan freight for a same-region move and confirm your target move-in window early — The Venetian Expo fills its docks quickly during AAPEX.
2026 Pricing Detail
A turnkey 30x30 island for AAPEX typically falls between $36,800–$59,500. The variance tracks design complexity, AV and monitor count, and architectural detail:
- $36,800–$44,300: clean professional build, backlit fabric, standard counters, LED lighting.
- $48,200: monitor walls, upgraded lighting, second meeting room, theater capability, hospitality — the mid-market sweet spot.
- $59,500: premium materials, architectural ceiling, sound-private rooms, custom lighting design.
Rent vs Buy
For one to three shows a year, renting at $36,800–$59,500 per show wins on cash flow and design flexibility — you re-skin graphics each cycle and never carry storage or refurbishment. For five or more shows on stable branding, purchase can amortise lower, but at island scale the cost of looking dated mid-purchase-life is real. Most AAPEX exhibitors at this footprint rent.
