1st True Tattoo Expo

Join us for the inaugural True Tattoo Expo—a bold celebration of tattoo artistry, culture, and community featuring elite artists from around the world and standout local talent.

Get tattooed all weekend long and witness two thrilling styles of live competition: the classic judged format and the high-energy Walk-In Warrior showdown, where artists battle on the spot for a cash prize and the coveted Walk-In Warrior title.

Enjoy immersive experiences for all ages including face painting, permanent jewelry, and traditional henna. Catch daily performances by mimes, laugh out loud with a caricature artist who actually roasts you, and explore unique vendors offering art, apparel, and one-of-a-kind finds.

On Friday night, stick around for a stand-up comedian performing in the venue to wrap up the day on a high note, and on Saturday, join us for an epic after party directly across the street to keep the energy going. Fuel up with delicious food, drinks, and alcoholic beverages available for purchase.

Whether you’re a tattoo enthusiast, art lover, or just looking for a vibrant weekend out, this family-friendly event has something for everyone.

Applications to be an attending artist or vendor, to compete in the Walk-In Warrior competition, and to purchase tickets are all available on our website. Follow us on Instagram for daily updates: @truetattooexpo.

This is the first year for this expo and unlike a lot of others, we are making it an event to remember with so many different things going on and investing a ton into advertising so all the artists actually stay busy!!
