AAPEX 2026 in Las Vegas — November 3–5, 2026

AAPEX returns to Las Vegas from November 3 to 5, 2026 as North America's definitive gathering point for the automotive aftermarket. Across 550,000 square feet at the Venetian Expo and Caesars Forum, more than 2,500 manufacturers and suppliers showcase 1,400+ product categories — from underhood and undercar components to diagnostics, tools, EV and alternative fuel systems, remanufacturing and shop management software. The show is built for real business: buyers meet decision-makers face to face, work through live demos at Joe's Garage, and get hands-on training on real vehicles with the latest diagnostic equipment. Registration includes access to general sessions, show-floor stages, mini debates and exhibitor demonstrations at no extra cost, while paid training sessions cover shop strategy, business management and diagnostics. Networking runs throughout the week, with an Opening Reception, the Keynote Breakfast, Beers and Gears, the AAPEX Booth Crawl and free Buyers Lunches open to all attendees. A new addition for 2026, iFLEX at AAPEX, expands the Oil & Lube section in partnership with PAMA, adding more suppliers and education for the preventative maintenance community. AAPEX is co-owned by the Auto Care Association and MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers, and is produced by W.T. Glasgow Inc. Attendees registering as part of the show also receive Exhibit Hall access to the co-located SEMA Show. With hotel rates through AAPEX starting at $110 per night and free shuttle service from most partner properties, planning accommodation early is strongly recommended.
