Brighton Tattoo Convention

02/07/2026

Tomorrow morning I’m heading down to Ashton Gate to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of bristoltattooconvention I remember when it was a rammed little show in a train shed, it’s now quite probably the No1 Tattoo Convention in Europe…. and they done it with no dancing girls, comps, bumper cars, stilt walkers or any of that other nonsense. Just 250 great solid tattooists, traditional values, a huge crowd of people wanting tattooing and good old fashioned graft. All of the crew involved love this weekend and it shows. If you haven’t already… get a ticket and go check out a proper tattoo show ❤️

Keep an eye out 👀
The full Brighton Tattoo Convention 2027 poster drops this week…
We thought we’d ease everyone in gently with a close up detail first, mainly to delay the inevitable “I can’t read it” comments for at least another 24 hours 😂
