One of the highlights of the convention is the exciting tattoo competition, where artists worldwide will showcase their work, New York Fashion Week-style. For the seventh instalment this year, the competition will be divided into three categories: black and white, colour, and schoolwork. Take in a display of beautifully adorned bodies as first-class talents in the tattoo world compete for the top spot.

Visitors will also arrive to find stalls lining the exhibition hall where tattoo artists will offer sessions on the day in their respective booths. If you want to get a tattoo at the convention, be sure to contact participating artists individually for a booking ahead of time.
