I go every year.

There are NO tickets to SEMA. Qualified attendees register and get a pass with their name on it.

So if someone sells or lets another person use his pass they are at risk of losing their qualification status.

SEMA does do a car show, It is open to the public Friday after SEMA closes. They move the cars to another lot across the street (who ever wants to participate) and they announce the Battle of the builders at that show. You have to get there early cause it gets dark soon after it starts.

I've been once, would love to go again. The crowd just of the "certified" people is huge. If it was open to the general public I don't believe you would have room to even move.

It's called sema ignited, and it is no comparison to sema itself. Just sayin

Also make sure you don't double park or jay walk on your way there lol. Seriously though, I haven't done it because I don't have to, but I see passes for sale on Craigslist by the dozens the month of, and moreover, the week before and during. I'm virtually certain that if you did go that route, and walked politely and humbly through everything just soaking it in, you, and the 'seller', would be more than fine. And with that attitude honestly you'd be more mature that many legal goers. Sema is an amazing one of a kind spectacle, but also chalk full of crazy idiots that want nothing more than to molest your vehicle. Period.

Correct. On occasion I've known guys that lend their passes to other car guys/friends for a day they are not going. Has never been an issue.
