Event Overview

The St Louis Tattoo Festival features over 200 tattoo artists from around the world, gathered for three days of tattooing, art making, merchandise selling, and more. Attendees will have opportunities to get tattooed by both traveling and local artists. While some artists book appointments in advance, there will also be walk-up tattoo opportunities available on a first-come, first-served basis each day.

Beyond tattooing, the festival offers a full range of entertainment including merchandise sales by artists and vendors, tattoo contests where attendees can enter tattoos they already have, and live contests showcasing the skills of top artists. Tattoo artists can purchase supplies from various vendors, both for use during the event and for their own shops.

Daily "Tattoo of the Day" competitions highlight the best tattoos created at the festival each day.

Whether attending for a first tattoo, a milestone tattoo, or simply for fun, the St Louis Tattoo Festival welcomes all visitors to join in the vibrant celebration of tattoo culture.
