A tattoo convention is an event where tattoo artists, and vendors gather to showcase, celebrate, and share their love for tattooing. Tattoo artists set up booths where they tattoo at the convention, allowing attendees to get tattooed on-site. The convention also serves as a platform for artists to display their work, share techniques, and network with peers. Attendees can meet artists, see different tattoo styles, buy merch and meet other like minded people who love tattooing.
