2026 Los Angeles Auto Show

The Los Angeles Auto Show returns to the Los Angeles Convention Center November 20–29, 2026 with public days and an industry preview (AutoMobility LA) earlier in the week. Expect new model debuts, EV showcases, concept cars and mobility tech across the convention halls.

The show is producer-backed and widely attended by consumers, manufacturers and media. It’s a convenient stop for West Coast car fans and industry professionals looking for hands-on displays and test-ride/demo information.

A large, dealer-and-manufacturer-focused consumer auto show with an industry preview program (AutoMobility LA) for press and trade.

What makes it worth the trip:

• Major OEMs use the LA show for West Coast debuts and EV rollouts, making it a good place to see region-specific launches.
• Indoor, climate-controlled halls at the Los Angeles Convention Center let you view cars up close, talk to brand reps, and see concept vehicles not yet in showrooms.
• The schedule often includes press presentations, manufacturer displays, and mobility exhibits that highlight near-term production tech.

Best way to experience it:

Buy public-show tickets for a weekday morning to avoid peak crowding, check the official site for AutoMobility LA press-day access if you qualify, and use the show map to prioritize marque pavilions and EV displays.

Good to know:

• The public show runs November 20–29, 2026; AutoMobility LA is the industry/media preview earlier in the week.
• The venue is the Los Angeles Convention Center near downtown L.A.; public transit and rideshare are practical ways to arrive.

• Great if you want to see new model and EV reveals on the West Coast.
• Great if you enjoy hands-on brand displays and speaking with manufacturer reps.
• Great if you like indoor, walkable shows with concentrated manufacturer pavilions.
• Maybe skip if you prefer small, specialized car meets or track-only events.
