Presale tickets are using the ticket link on this website. Tickets are collected at Will Call at the event.

Anyone over 18 can get tattooed at the show. You must sign a release form and present a valid ID. If you want tattooed by a specific artist, you should contact them in advance and set up an appointment. Some artists take tattoos on a first come, first served basis. Just ask them at their booth!

You will need to contact your preferred artist directly. This can usually be done by sending a message on their social media, sending an email, or a booking link on their website. Some artists may have more information about booking in their Instagram bio or on a post they have made.

Each artist will price their tattoos. You will need to inquire with them. This can be done in advance of the festival or asking during the event.

You can find the attending artists in the menu above. Click Attending Artist. You can also see them listed on our website and social media pages.
