The Los Angeles Auto Show, also known as the LA Auto Show, is an auto show held annually at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, California, United States. It is open to the public for ten days, filling 760,000 square feet (71,000 m2) of exhibit space. Since 2006 the event is held in November or December.
The LA Auto Show is an OICA sanctioned international exhibition. It is one of the four major auto shows in North America[citation needed] together with Detroit, Chicago and New York.
The show begins with AutoMobility LA,[1] a several day press showing.[2]
History
[edit]The Los Angeles Auto Show began in 1907 with ninety-nine vehicles on display at Morley's Skating Rink. In 1910, the event was held under a canvas big top at Fiesta Park.[3] As the auto industry grew, the auto show changed venues four times throughout the 1920s to accommodate the growing needs of vendors. During the 1922 show, the sixteenth, a short circuit in one of the airplane exhibits caused a massive fire that destroyed the entire venue, resulting in over US$1 million ($18.8 million in 2024 dollars) worth of damages. There were no injuries. With the help of the community, the show reopened one day later at the Shrine Auditorium. In 1926, it took place at the corner of Hill and Washington where it stayed for the next four years.
The show continued to prove successful throughout the 1930s, but took a down turn during the Second World War and went on hiatus from 1940 through 1951. In 1952, the show re-opened at the Pan Pacific Auditorium with 152 vehicles on display, including those from international manufacturers.
In 2006, the show moved its dates from early January to late November/early December, thus resulting in two shows during the year. The second 2006 event celebrated the show's centennial, despite its 100th year being 2007.
AutoMobility LA
[edit]In response to new technologies such as driver assist and cloud-based infotainment in the auto industry, the LA Auto Show organizers created the Connected Car Expo[4] in 2013.
The LA Auto Show begins with AutoMobility LA, four days catered to journalists, designers and industry representatives. In 2014, the show had 65 debuts, a record number. From 2013 to 2015, the first of three Press & Trade Days was devoted to the Connected Car Expo, a mingling affair for automotive and technology professionals. Connected Car Expo was merged with the show's Press & Trade days to create AutoMobility LA in 2016. For 2016, AutoMobility LA also included several events, with four days of networking, three days of breaking news, and two days of learning. The Press & Trade Days Kickoff Party was held for industry and media professionals the night before AutoMobility LA Conference. The Green Car of the Year Awards presented by the Green Car Journal. 2019 also marked the 10th anniversary of the Hispanic Motor Press Awards, presented to the best cars as selected by a national jury composed of Hispanic journalist, bloggers, and influencers. (www.hispanicmotorpress.org) During the Design LA Open House & Reception, automotive design studios present concepts to a judging committee, and the winner of judges' pick as well as people's choice award are both announced during the annual reception. During the Green/Tech Ride & Drive, there were test drives of new tech and green advancements exclusively for media . Automobile designers finished out Design LA at the Designers’ Night Reception hosted by Car Design News, which was offsite and required separate registration to attend.

[edit]LA Auto Show
View on GrokipediaHistory
Early Years (1907–1939)
The Los Angeles Auto Show was founded in 1907 by the Automobile Dealers Association of Southern California, marking the first automobile exhibition on the West Coast and the largest of its kind west of Chicago. Held from January 21 to 27 at Morley's Skating Rink on Grand Avenue between 9th and 10th Streets, the inaugural event featured 46 manufacturers displaying 99 vehicles, drawing approximately 3,000 visitors who paid 25 cents admission to view early automobiles like runabouts and touring cars. This modest beginning reflected the burgeoning interest in personal transportation in Southern California, where the automobile was rapidly transforming urban mobility.[6][9][10] As attendance grew, the show relocated to larger venues to accommodate expanding exhibits and crowds. By 1910, it moved to Fiesta Park, bounded by Grand Avenue, 12th Street, Hope Street, and Pico Boulevard, showcasing a wider array of models amid the region's booming car culture. The event resumed in 1919 at Prager Park on Grand Avenue and Washington Boulevard from January 11 to 18. The 1920 edition, the ninth overall, took place December 11 to 19 at the Arnold Building on 7th and Figueroa Streets, featuring over 50 dealers with vehicles valued at more than $1 million, including Fords, Chevrolets, and luxury marques like Locomobile, alongside trucks, accessories, and entertainment such as orchestras. Mid-decade shows from 1923 to 1926 were held indoors at the Biltmore Hotel, emphasizing enclosed displays for protection against weather.[10][9] A pivotal incident occurred during the 1929 show, held March 2 to 11 at temporary tents on Washington Boulevard and Hill Street. On March 5, a fire—possibly sparked by a cigarette or electrical short—destroyed the site, engulfing around 380 vehicles in flames and causing $1 to $1.25 million in damage (equivalent to about $25–31 million today). Approximately 2,500 attendees escaped unharmed, though three individuals, including two firefighters, suffered burns; no fatalities occurred. Remarkably, the show reopened the next day at the Shrine Auditorium through community support and dealer resilience, salvaging remaining exhibits and underscoring the event's importance to the industry. By the early 1930s, economic pressures from the Great Depression led to dual shows in 1933 at Wilshire Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue, transitioning to the newly opened Pan Pacific Auditorium in 1935 for the November 2 to 10 edition, which hosted international manufacturers from England, France, and Italy alongside American brands. The 1939 show at Pan Pacific featured 150 vehicles and attracted an estimated 20,000 visitors on opening day, signaling robust recovery and setting the stage for wartime interruptions.[11][12][13][6]Wartime Hiatus and Revival (1940–1959)
The Los Angeles Auto Show experienced a significant interruption following its 1941 edition, entering a hiatus that lasted until 1947 due to the impacts of World War II. With the U.S. entry into the war in December 1941, the domestic automotive industry ceased civilian vehicle production to prioritize military manufacturing, including tanks, aircraft engines, and other war materials, which accounted for approximately 20% of the nation's total wartime output.[6][14] This shift, combined with nationwide rationing of gasoline, rubber, and metals, as well as restrictions on large public gatherings, rendered auto shows unfeasible during the conflict.[15] The 5-year suspension marked a stark contrast to the pre-war era's annual events, reflecting broader economic and social disruptions in Los Angeles, a key hub for aircraft and defense production. No official shows were held from 1942 through 1946, though informal automotive exhibits occasionally appeared at local venues amid the postwar recovery.[6] The hiatus underscored the auto industry's deep integration into the war effort, with major manufacturers like General Motors and Ford redirecting facilities entirely to defense needs until production resumed for civilians in late 1945.[14] Revival came in 1947, when the show reopened at the Pan Pacific Auditorium from November 21 to 24, drawing crowds eager for the latest models after years of scarcity.[5] This edition featured approximately 140 vehicles on display, a modest but symbolic return that included offerings from both American and emerging international manufacturers, signaling the postwar economic boom and renewed consumer interest in automobiles.[16] Attendance surged as returning veterans and families embraced car culture, with the event highlighting innovations like streamlined designs and improved engines suited to peacetime mobility.[5] Throughout the 1950s, the show expanded steadily at the Pan Pacific Auditorium, growing to approximately 400 vehicles by the decade's end and incorporating a broader array of European imports, such as Porsche models, fueled by service members' exposure to foreign cars during the war.[16] This period solidified the event's role in showcasing automotive progress amid suburban expansion and highway development in Southern California, though it remained smaller in scale compared to later iterations until venue changes in the 1960s.Modern Development (1960–present)
The Los Angeles Auto Show experienced significant expansion during the 1960s, driven by increasing popularity and the debut of Japanese automakers, which necessitated an additional 60,000 square feet of exhibition space to accommodate growing crowds and displays.[6] This period marked a shift toward greater international participation, building on the post-war revival and reflecting the rising influence of imports in the U.S. market. By the 1970s, the event relocated to the Los Angeles Convention Center, a venue that provided the scale needed for its evolving scope, stabilizing its operations after years of moving between temporary sites like the Pan Pacific Auditorium.[17] The 1980s and 1990s further solidified the show's prominence amid booming U.S. vehicle ownership, with 87.2% of households owning at least one car and 51.5% possessing multiple vehicles, alongside average new car prices of $7,000 and gasoline at $0.90 per gallon.[5] The 1993 expansion of the Convention Center offered sufficient room to meet surging demands, enabling larger exhibits and more global brands. In 2006, to avoid scheduling conflicts with the Detroit Auto Show and enhance its international appeal—coinciding with the event's centennial—the dates shifted from early January to late November/early December, resulting in two shows that year and attracting 35 world or North American vehicle debuts along with 2,500 media attendees.[18][19] The 2010s introduced a focus on emerging technologies, with the 2016 launch of AutoMobility LA as dedicated media and industry days, merging press previews with the Connected Car Expo to highlight innovations in autonomy, connectivity, electrification, and shared mobility, featuring over 50 vehicle debuts in its inaugural year.[20] Attendance surged post-date change, reaching approximately 920,000 in 2011—a 22% increase from 2009—while the consumer portion expanded to 10 days, drawing hundreds of thousands annually.[21] In recent years, the show has emphasized sustainable mobility, with features like the expanded Electric Avenue in 2023 showcasing over 20 EV models from 10 automakers and facilitating more than 20,000 test drives, amid California's 21.4% battery electric vehicle market share that year; overall attendance has shown steady post-pandemic growth, with participants from all 50 U.S. states and 41 countries.[22]Event Structure
Venue and Facilities
The Los Angeles Auto Show is hosted at the Los Angeles Convention Center (LACC), a prominent multipurpose venue located at 1201 S. Figueroa Street in downtown Los Angeles, California.[1][23] This facility, originally opened in 1971 and expanded multiple times, serves as the primary site for the event, providing expansive spaces suitable for displaying hundreds of vehicles and attracting over a million visitors annually.[24] The LACC's central location near major highways and public transit hubs facilitates easy access for attendees from across Southern California and beyond.[25] The convention center features more than 720,000 square feet of contiguous exhibit space across five dedicated halls, which the Auto Show utilizes to accommodate automaker displays, interactive exhibits, and aftermarket showcases.[26] Key areas include the South Hall (350,000 square feet), ideal for large-scale vehicle presentations; the West Hall (210,685 square feet), often used for high-profile debuts; Kentia Hall (162,000 square feet), hosting supplementary attractions; and the smaller Concourse Hall and Petree Hall (each 26,342 square feet), which feature specialized exhibits like custom vehicle displays and innovation zones.[26] For the Auto Show, these spaces are configured to span about 500,000 square feet in the main halls alone, with additional indoor and outdoor areas extending the total footprint to around one million square feet, enabling test drives, live demonstrations, and family-oriented activities.[27][28] The halls are equipped with high ceilings (up to 40 feet in South Hall sections), multiple loading docks for efficient vehicle transport, and flexible configurations to support both static displays and dynamic events.[29] Parking and accessibility are integral to the venue's operations, with the LACC providing roughly 5,600 spaces across its West Hall Garage (at W. 12th Street and L.A.
