10 Wildest Tattoo Expos & Conventions

Tattoo Conventions & Tattoo Expos have seen a booming resurgence in recent years! The number of these tattoo festivals are popping up all across the USA!

Tattoos have always been a way for a person to express themselves artistically, but these days, it’s also a major fashion accessory with the number of U.S citizens with Tattoos on the rise and Tattoo conventions booming as a result!

Tattoos can be purely decorative, artistic & for alot of people they have a deeper emotional meaning from the names of loved ones, family to star signs and spirit animals…the reasons people really get into Tattoos is massive! One thing is for sure they can really change some peoples life.

Tattoo Expo

Here are some quick tattoo facts to get your teeth into:

• 36% of U.S citizens between the ages of 18 to 29 have at least one tattoo.
• United States of America has over 20,000 tattoo parlors. With a new one opened every day.
• The word (tattoo) became the number one google search word in 2002.
• 30% of college graduates in the U.S.A have tattoos.
• According to a U.S survey the most common place for a women to have a tattoo is her ankle (27%) for men it’s their upper ack shoulder.

Tatoo Expo

• 24% of people think that tattoos can make someone look more attractive.
• Out of a survey of people with tattoos 70% have greater than one and 20% have greater than five!
• 38% of people serving in the U.S Army have at least one Tattoo.
• 32% of US citizens admit to having a “addiction” to getting inked!

From these facts it’s clear to see that the number of tattoos is on the rise and it also seems that getting a tattoo can be an addictive experience, even though it can be painful most people who have tattoos find it soooo worth it!!

I am 5 myself  (two full arm sleeves) one full leg and a couple of little ones but that’s nothing compared to some of the really passionate people you will see at the tattoo conventions. But it all comes from the same place, I love of the Ink!

Tattoo Conventions/Festivals

Tattoo Conventions act as a celebration of great Tattoo masterpieces. They offer a great community vibe and an awesome source of inspiration for your next tattoo.

If you have not attended a tattoo convention before it is a must do bucket list event! At the Tattoo convention you will find hundreds of talented artists, a passionate community looking for their next fix and a host of curious spectators who wish to see the human artwork on display.

They are entertaining & engaging events with dancers, fire Breathers, live music and even tattoo catwalk shows! Alot of the Tattoo Expos especially Hells City Expo and Motor City Expo, have a real hedonistic vibe about them...which is a really unique experience in itself!

With live tattooing you get to really see first hand people being transformed from blank canvas to a piece of art throughout the day!

One of my favourite parts about most tattoo conventions is the real community vibe. If you travel to many Tattoo conventions like myself you will surely bump into a few friends and the familiar tattoo Picassos who all do the “circuit”.

At some of the great Tattoo conventions you will have a real opportunity to meet & get tattooed by talented artists from all over the world…without having to hop on a flight to Europe or Japan!

If you’ve not attended a Tattoo Convention or Tattoo festival before you may find deciding which event to go and when a real challenge so I have put together this informative article on a complete guide to most WICKED and Wild Tattoo Conventions/Festivals in the United States of America.

Tattoo Convention Etiquette

When walking around the the convention be mindful that some of the artists are working & need to concentrate while tattooing so give them plenty of breathing room, while they get to work. But the great news is most are really happy to answer any questions & give you a time slot where you can drop by for a consultation.

Tattoo Conventions for Artists:

If your a Tattoo artist the conventions are an absolute goldmine of contacts, clients and a host of talented collaborators. As an aspiring tattoo artist you can take part in seminars, workshops and learn new skills from the best in the business.

How do you get a Tattoo at a Convention?

As you are walking around the convention seeing the sights, sounds and wonderful displays of awesome tattoo art. It’s only normal that you will get a few ideas buzzing around your head and will definitely want a tattoo to take home with you (I know I did!!).

Some tattoo artists offer walk ups & happily book you in. However, if you want a tattoo by the greatest artists at the tattoo convention you are best to book up in advance!

As alot of the most talented artists only make enough time for one customer per day! Best to follow the artists directly on social media or the Tattoo convention pages to see whose on there.

Once you know then contact them that very same day and ask for a booking. If you miss out on this sometimes you can get lucky & squeeze a little tattoo in with one of the greats if they finish one of their big tattoos early.

Top 10 Tattoo Conventions in the USA

10. United Ink No Limits Tattoo Convention: New York

No Limits Tattoo convention is one of the best in the United States & maybe even the world. Here you will find an abundance of vibrant activity, from live tattooing demos to live music and entertainment!
