Starting Friday, June 12-14, be sure to attend New York’s 18th Annual NYC Tattoo Convention located at the Metropolitan Pavilion on 125 West 18th St. The event will be held from 4:00pm to midnight on Friday and Saturday from 12:00pm-12:00am, and noon to 8:00pm on Sunday.

This annual tattoo convention started in 1998, following the enactment of the law that made tattooing in New York City legal after a decades-long ban. The NYC Tattoo Convention has a long and respected history so for all of you hardcore ink lovers out there, you don’t want to miss this historical but entertaining event. Patrons can expect live stage shows, tons of vendors and piercers, and top tattoo artists from all over the world including Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Taiwan, etc. Icons like Spider Webb and Jack Rudy have attended this prestigious event in the past.

Patrons have the opportunity to purchase a 1-day standard admission pass or a 3-day unlimited access pass. Tickets will only be available for purchase on Friday and Sunday. Visit here to purchase tickets and to learn more or call 212-982-7700.
