CARS@AAPEX has three programs at its core. If you are new to industry week (AAPEX and SEMA) we can help you to see all the sites with a 3 night stay. If you are close to Vegas fly in Wednesday Morning. If not fly in Tuesday night and plan to go home Friday night or Saturday morning.

Here is the recommended agenda:

Wednesday

    If you are into Hot Rods this is your day to go to SEMA at the Las Vegas Convention center - Your CARS/AAPEX/SEMA badge gets you into all three events.

    If you are more focused on your service repair business we recommend spending the day at AAPEX in the Sands Convention Center (access through the Venetian hotel or Sands Convention Center Parking Garage)
