9th International London Tattoo Convention - Two Months To Go!





With only two months to go, the countdown is now on to the London Tattoo Convention!

Now in its 9th year, it is one of the world's biggest. This year it boasts over 300 tattoo artists, in addition to three days bursting with vendors, special guests, live music, entertainment and tattoo contests.

Tattoo conventions are almost like a live art gallery, with new pieces being created right before your eyes. There's never a dull moment and this is sure to be no different.

There will be burlesque and a fire performer on the main stage, the opportunity to meet your favourite tattooed/alternative models and delve into the world of flash tattooing with the Amsterdam Tattoo Museum. 

But let's not forget the whole point of this convention: the tattoos.

Watch your favourite artists in action or add to your own collection. Some artists will take walk-up clients, whilst others book appointments in advance. It's best to contact them now to avoid disappointment. 

There will be some Australians in attendance this year with Claire Reed, Alvaro Flores, Benjamin Laukis, Mick Squires and Kian Forreal - Horisumi shown to be attending.

Other favourites of mine include:

UK

Jason Butcher
Stewart Robson
Valerie Vargas


USA

Tim Hendricks
Dillon Forte
Mike Rubendall


Japan

Horishin (who has tattooed me)
Shige


Search through all the artists or filter the results by country to find the perfect one to do your next tattoo.

Have your money ready and your skin prepped, and get ready for three exciting days at the 9th International London Tattoo Convention.


Buy your tickets online now and avoid the queues on the day.
