Hello and welcome to The Great British Tattoo Show! Olympia is our airy abode for a weekend of thrills, spills and the UK’s newest celebration of some mighty fine tattooing and electric entertainment! So what’s it all about? The Great British Tattoo Show was borne of a desire to bring together as many elements of the inked lifestyle as possible under one roof. So here today, we have alternative fashion shows, acts, activities and spectacles for you to feast your eyes on! Whether you are into punk rock, retro beauty, street style, graffiti or more – there is something here for all. Let’s celebrate our differences under the umbrella of the one thing that binds us all. Tattoos... glorious tattoos! The Great British Tattoo Show plays host to a collection of tattoo artists at the very pinnacle of their careers who have travelled here from world over to make their mark on your skin. Their work is second-to-none and we are delighted to have them with us. And with tattooing styles spanning the entire spectrum, you really are spoilt for choice! Many artists are working on a first-comefirst-served basis so you have the extraordinary opportunity to get the best ink available – right here, this weekend. Among these are Roman Abrego and Sweet Laraine from the USA, Zoltan Kriszan of Hungary, Rogal and Deadi from Poland, and so many more – make sure you take time to see all of our wonderful artists, some of them are making their UK convention debut. This show reflects the UK’s true passion for fantastic ink and alternative interests. Brand new for the UK convention scene is the fashion element of this show. Where we will be showcasing a selection of wonderful designers and brands of alternative clothing to tickle your style-buds!
