The Offspring will headline the 2026 SEMA Fest, leading a rock lineup that also features Jimmy Eat World, 311 and The Alive during the annual celebration of music and automotive culture on Nov. 6 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Organized by the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA), the one-day event serves as the public finale of SEMA Week, combining live performances with vehicle showcases, motorsports demonstrations and public access to portions of the renowned SEMA Show.
Festival organizers said attendees will be able to explore thousands of custom vehicles, exhibits from more than 2,000 automotive brands and aftermarket companies, and signature attractions including the SEMA Cruise before the concert begins. Evening programming will also feature live drifting exhibitions, stunt performances and specialty vehicle displays, continuing the event’s blend of entertainment and car culture.
The lineup brings together several veteran rock acts with extensive catalogs of hit songs. The Offspring, formed in Southern California in 1984, has sold more than 45 million records worldwide and remains known for songs including “Self Esteem,” “Come Out and Play,” “The Kids Aren’t Alright” and “Pretty Fly (For a White Guy).” Jimmy Eat World joins the bill following the enduring success of “The Middle,” while 311 adds its signature fusion of rock, reggae, funk and hip-hop after releasing 14 studio albums and selling more than 10 million records in the United States. California-based band The Alive rounds out the lineup with a modern rock sound influenced by classic and alternative rock artists.
