Get ready for the ultimate weekend celebration of skin and art at Tattoo Fest Grand Rapids! Step into an immersive world where the needle is the paintbrush and the body is the canvas. This is your exclusive chance to witness the best in the industry, with over 300 of the world’s most talented tattoo artists gathered under one roof. Whether you're planning your next major piece or looking for spontaneous new ink, the floor will be buzzing with unparalleled creativity.
Forget months-long waiting lists—this festival is your golden ticket to spontaneous self-expression. Artists will be making tattoos all weekend long, and many of them will be accepting walk-ups! It’s the perfect opportunity to get inked by an award-winning professional you might not otherwise have access to. Beyond the tattooing, this festival is a celebration of expressing your individuality. It’s a space where every style is welcomed, every body is a masterpiece, and every piece of art tells a unique story about who you are. This is your chance to connect with fellow enthusiasts, share your passion, and celebrate the incredible diversity of tattoo culture.
The excitement extends beyond the booth, as we host thrilling tattoo competitions daily, giving artists the chance to vie for bragging rights and trophies in contests for the Best Tattoos in various categories. But the spectacle doesn't stop with ink—Saturday night brings the highly anticipated Costume Contest! Put together your most creative, outrageous, or terrifying ensemble and compete for fame and glory, with a massive $1000 cash grand prize going to the grand champion. Explore our diverse marketplace featuring dozens of unique vendors selling fine arts, jewelry, and custom clothing. Take a break from the action to enjoy the festive atmosphere with great concessions and a full bar on site to keep the energy high.
