Automotive enthusiasts can now gain access to a thriving automotive community, exclusive discounts on industry and lifestyle brands, and special perks to help them stay on the pulse of the industry by becoming a SEMA+ member at www.sema.org/plus.
Building on the launch of SEMA’s Individual Membership in 2021, the rebranded SEMA+ membership delivers greater value to enthusiasts, consumers, and the industry community. Members can save money on aftermarket parts, gear, and services, spotlight their ride on SEMA social media, save money on tickets to select automotive events throughout the year, and stay updated on industry and advocacy news through a dedicated newsletter–bridging the gap between their automotive passion and the aftermarket community, events, and brands they enjoy.
“The reimagined SEMA+ program is more than a membership; it’s a movement to unite the industry and amplify its collective voice,” said AJ Carney, SEMA Senior Director of Membership. “With exciting new brand partnerships and updated programs and experiences, we aim to strengthen our foundation and further preserve, protect, and grow the automotive aftermarket industry in new and exciting ways.”
SEMA+ also offers great advantages for SEMA business members looking to reach broader consumer audiences. By becoming a benefit partner, businesses can get their brand noticed and promote their products year-round through the SEMA+ member portal.
SEMA+ x FuelFest
SEMA+ has partnered with FuelFest, the nationwide celebration of horsepower, music, and family, to offer its attendees access to a SEMA+ membership for just $5 (+tax) – a savings of $35 off the annual SEMA+ membership price!
“Partnering with SEMA+ is an exciting opportunity to further connect our fans and attendees with new opportunities that benefit them far beyond our in-person events,” said Cody Walker, Founder, FuelFest. “FuelFest is all about sharing with our special family of enthusiasts, and this partnership supports our joint mission of combining excitement for the automotive world with non-stop action.”
FuelFest’s next stop will be local to SEMA HQ and at the foundation of American car culture, the Pomona Fairplex in Pomona, Calif., on Saturday, June 28. SEMA+ members can get 10% off FuelFest tickets by claiming their event discount code within their member only portal.
Following six years of record-setting shows in the Los Angeles area, the legendary National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) joins this year’s event, making possible non-stop head-to-head grudge matches on the world-famous quarter-mile dragstrip, in addition to drifting and music throughout the day. FuelFest ticket buyers – for LA and the additional 2025 events – can secure their discounted SEMA+ membership by scrolling down to the “Add-Ons” section at checkout at www.fuelfest.com.
SEMA+: Your Ride. Your Voice. Your Community.
Anyone can join SEMA+ for just $40 a year — or $35 a year with auto renewal (that’s less than $3 a month) at www.sema.org/plus. New experiences and perks will continue to be added over time.
