A Show Day With a Chauffeur

Before the Doors Open

Early booth setup starts long before the 9 a.m. opening. A point-to-point ride each morning gets you from your hotel to the LVCC, the Venetian Expo, or Caesars Forum on your schedule. For setup, exhibitor crews can share a Sprinter and arrive together.

Between SEMA and AAPEX

Walking both shows? One direct ride takes you from the LVCC to the Venetian Expo, then back again for afternoon appointments.

After the Show Floor Closes

Evenings are for supplier meetings and client dinners. Book a car by the hour, and your chauffeur waits while you meet, then takes you to the next stop.

Arriving and Leaving Las Vegas

We pick up at LAS with flight tracking and up to 60 minutes of free wait time. On the last day, your chauffeur can take you from the show floor straight to your flight. Coming from Southern California? We also run chauffeured trips from Los Angeles and San Diego to Las Vegas.

SEMA Show Transportation Pickup Points

Before the show we will pick you up from wherever you are. However, during the show, each venue has set areas where car services can stop. Your chauffeur meets you at the one nearest your hall or entrance.

At the LVCC (SEMA)

There are three official pickup and drop-off areas for car services:

Blue Lot: East end of the Grand Lobby, next to Central Hall.
Platinum Lot: Across from the South Hall East Lobby.
Majestic Lot: At Convention Center Drive and Debbie Reynolds Drive.

At the Venetian Expo (AAPEX)

Pickup lanes are right outside the front entrance. Space there is tight, and cars can’t wait at the curb, so let your chauffeur know when you’re walking out. If you’re at Caesars Forum, cross the sky bridge to the Venetian Expo during the show to meet your ride.

Why Book a Private Chauffeur for Show Week

SEMA and AAPEX fill Las Vegas with buyers, exhibitors, and media, and AAPEX alone draws attendees from more than 120 countries.

A chauffeur in a black suit holds open the rear door of a black luxury SUV for a businessman carrying a briefcase outside the Las Vegas Convention Center.

A private chauffeur keeps your day on track: an early booth setup, an off-site lunch, a dinner across town, or a flight before the show closes.

It also helps with:

No Parking Hunt: SEMA warns that construction at the LVCC will affect parking during the 2026 show. With a chauffeur, you’re dropped at the door.
Company Billing: Ask for a receipt or invoice for your ride so it’s ready for your expense report.

Questions About SEMA Show Transportation

Is the SEMA Show open to the public?

No. The SEMA Show is a trade-only event for people who work in the auto parts and accessories industry. The public can attend on Friday, Nov 6, 2026, through SEMA Fest.

Should I book hourly service or point-to-point transportation for SEMA?

Choose point-to-point for a simple hotel-to-show transfer. Choose hourly service if you have multiple stops, meetings, dinners, or need the vehicle to remain available throughout the day.

Can I make last-minute changes to my SEMA transportation itinerary?

Yes, depending on vehicle and chauffeur availability. If your SEMA schedule changes and you need to add a stop, adjust your pickup time, or extend your reservation, contact Prestige Ride as soon as possible. If your itinerary involves multiple changes throughout the day, hourly service may be a better fit than separate point-to-point bookings.

Can I book my rides for the whole show week at once?

Yes. Book each ride ahead, from your first morning at the show to your last trip out, so your pickups are set before the week starts.

What if my SEMA plans change?

You can change or cancel your ride. Cancel at least 24 hours before pickup for sedans and SUVs, 48 hours for luxury vans, and 72 hours for limousines. Our cancellation and refund policy has the full details.
