The Great Western Tattoo Show

Name: The Great Western Tattoo Show
Start: 2024-07-27
Location: STEAM Museum of the Great Western Railway

Up to 100 tattoo artists, from all over the United Kingdom, will be descending on Swindon for the town’s first ever tattoo show on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th July 2024!

Tattoo and art fans can browse the artists, many of them competing to be the best in category and best in show. Watch as dozens of people get inked and see the tattooists produce amazing works of art in front of your eyes.

Fancy some ink of your own? Then get in touch with an artist in advance to see if you can be their canvas for a day or find an artist with availability whilst at the convention.

Interspersed with the artists will be dozens of stands showing off their ‘alternative wares’ and tattoo related goods from jewellery and clothing to art and homewares. There’s guaranteed to be something that you wouldn’t normally be able to find on the high street!

The Great Western Tattoo Show is family friendly and accompanied children aged 14 and under are free. Please note: to get a tattoo, you must be aged 18 or over.
